someone that doesn't know any better
|
lol, I saw that one too! Obviously someone that knows a little, but not enough.
|
I hope no one gets taken on that deal!
|
No way!! Definitely a dreamer but you know someone will buy it.
|
There's one on SewItsForSale for $750. Usually the sellers there are pretty savvy so I'm surprised!!
|
No thank you.
|
the year i was born...hmm wonder if it is a special year or something.....kind of pricey isn`t it ...lol
|
There is a recurring ad on Nashville CL for one at 750.00 but it does include the card table. Still too rich for me. I'll stick with my freebie and no table.
|
LOL Some people think becouse they touched it, it is worth more. NOT!!! :roll: :thumbdown:
|
Featherweights on Kijiji(Canadian version of Craig's List) have been advertised in the $150-$400 range lately. A white one was advertised at $300 yesterday on the Barrie site. Every little while I still see dreamers who want to sell old machines in poor condition for big dollars.
|
The lady selling it is actually very nice- I emailed her to tell her about that high price. I asked her if it's a Centennial and even so they don't sell for much. I got one for far less than 300.00
She said she looked it up on an antique website. Then she asked me my opinion. I told her probably more than she wanted to know LOL But she was very sweet and said she wasn't trying to rip anyone off but didn't know much about them. I guess b/c some of us all such old machine addicts we assume everyone else knows. :D |
Recently there was one posted in Pittsburgh for $1000. Sometimes I wonder where they come up with those numbers??
|
If you just look and happen to catch the overpriced ones and you really aren't familiar with the market, I can see where it's easy to a. get excited and b. overprice. When no one buys she'll come down I'm sure, if she really wants to be rid of it.
|
Here's one pretty similar for $800:
http://iowacity.craigslist.org/app/2550423192.html She does have a card table with it, and they run about $125-$150. Ridiculous. Pam |
So e of the prices on eBay are absurd.
|
At that price it will be a real antique before he sells it.
