    I would pass on it, too. In addition to the missing bobbin winder, the presser foot is bend. I have never heard of that happening so I wonder if the machine was abused.

    My DH paid $75 for mine and at that time it was in pristine condition.But the decals are starting to fade I've used her a lot these past 20 years. But my cabinet is still in excellent condition.

    I would pass on both, unless you are looking for a restoration project that will take a lot of time. Both machine and cabinet are in bad shape.
