    Apparently so. Hope the mice don't have as much moolah as the human who buys this.

    "Vintage Emdeko Sewing Machine Zig Zag E-15039 in very nice condition, strong motor, mechanical parts run very quite and a mice collectible piece."

    Mice do try to take over - but why would they buy a machine when they can get in just about anyplace they want and take over for free?

    Me too - But I think I can't talk my husband into making a trip all the way to Miami to pick up the machine. I think it's only another day away from where we'll be in the upper part of the state . . . though it would also mean taking the truck.

    I also have no room - but I'd find room!

    "in good shape for age"

    What does that translate to? hasn't completely rusted?

    ggenovez- You are funny!!!!

    Perhaps the seller's vision is clouded by the dollar signs from that ridiculous asking price?
