What is it about this clone I wonder?
 

On shopgoodwill.com there is a 15 clone sitting at $67.99 with 12 hours to go. I've never seen one go this high. I wonder what's so desirable about it?

I hope it's not a QB member that's going to pay that much.

Don't know, but today I'm finishing one just like it I picked up for $14.99. This GW one can't be any better than mine. It is a wonderful, quiet stitcher.

There was one time I WAY overpaid for something from Goodwill- I figured I paid $100 for the machine, and the other $200 was a donation. Not something I would do except that it was Goodwill, and I didn't want to wait until I found the same machine for a better deal.

My bet is that someone is buying it as a fun gift for someone named "Mark", as the brand stamp is Mark III.

Often these clones have such fun names, and that is probably half the reason that people buy them sometimes! There is the Humen, the Planet.... many other fun ones also.

I saw a pumpkin orange coloured clone for sale a week or so ago. It was marvelous!!!

I already have 4 clones: HOTHER, EDISON, COMMODORE, DRESSMAKER, and I think another one. But I've not paid anywhere near that for any of them.

I hope that machine sews as good as it looks.

Maybe because it's clean and shiny! :) everyone goes for the shine.
I agree, I've been keeping my eye on a Kingston. why? because I have a Prince at home now and would like a "King" to pair it with ;)

you need a blue princess also!

Joe, have a look at this one. Someone knows something we don't.

Love that Princess.


Vridar,

That eBay seller is stoned on LSD or something. My wife thinks so too.
