    $30.00 EACH !?!?!? I don't think so. I can buy a brandy new one for $40.00. It would be plastic, but complete.
    Hope he/she sells them, but I don't think the price is reasonable.

    Makes one wonder where the sewing machine heads went. If the price was $10 each and I were close I would buy them.

    Caroline,

    I can make the bases for far less than $30.00 each. The only problem is finding hinges.
    If the seller had complete cases and wanted 30.00 each I'd be tempted, but only if they were in good condition.

    ​I agree Joe, I need hinges also.

    Yes, I can buy the whole thing for $20. in Illinois. The bottom is the easiest thing to make for display.

    Donna,

    Where in IL. If you mean the LSMG I told you about we've cleaned him out.
