Wow, that is the deal of the decade. I've been watching them on eBay for quite awhile and am thinking that Santa needs to bring me one this year. I figure if I get it for under $200 I'm doing well. One thing that irks me is that some sellers are asking HUGE shipping costs. There are 221s that have shipping cost ranging from $29 to $326. I emailed the $326 guy and asked if he was really serious or if it was a typo. I think some sellers really gouge people on shipping to make extra money for themselves.

Well, I went ot pick her up....way way way out in the sticks in a different county!! It is for sure a 221 and she's pretty! There are really only 2 things wrong with her but I can deal with it. I think it needs a new pedal/cord and then 2nd someone carved what looks like their Social Security # in the front! That's funny though I think! Don't know what I'll do with that. LOL

I have a picture on my cell phone so I'll send it to my email and see if I can upload it.

If not.....I can email it to someone else and they can upload if they didn't care. I have had the hardest time uploading pictures for some reason.

I'm thinking of calling her Ethel. (was thinking Bessie, Gertie Fannie or Ethel) All family names of my Great Aunts, then Ethel was my Great Grandmother.
