    Ouch! Keep us posted. I say this with a smile... please don't ask next time; BUY it! LOL You might still have been 3rd in line though. You can't beat the asking price.

    OH

    Please hurry and buy it! The machine is just like the one I brought home from CL but the cabinet is to die for! And the price, please tell me you will buy it. :?:
    I'm trying but am 3rd in line. I may know tomorrow if one of the other two don't buy it. Can't imagine that happening.
    :shock:

    I am loving all of these machines. I thought I would share some pictures of my two Davis machines. (At least the Marathon is a David, believe the Loeser is too) I have not attempted to clean or do anything with these machines. I am waiting for Billy's tutes lol

    :shock: :shock: :shock: Oh my... April, those are beautiful. I am running out of great adjectives to describe what I am seeing of the photos posted on here. WoW! :shock: :shock: :shock:

    Can't remember who was going to make those bibs but he/she better hurry up and get them done. Maybe fancy toothpicks for holding my eyes open too. :shock: :shock:

    Thanks Linda,
    The best part is what I paid for them-$10 for the Marathon and $40 for the Loeser. I am going to get them all cleaned up and proudly displayed as soon as I have enough confidence in myself lol
