    I thought I was missing something but it's the machine that's missing. Now, it is a nice cabinet but not at that price.

    Now, here's a seller of few words. I'll bet this lovely specimen works great.....it certainly seems to be in wonderful condition. Wish I knew how to make a sarcasm smiley.

    Good grief! I can't tell what they're asking... $450 to help them learn to thread it?

    "I have a old sewing machine the work i dont no how to thread it i would like 450.00 For it or someone help me do it so i can finseh my stuff call At xxxxxxxxx thank you its a very good sewing it works good."

    At least it works good! Though I'm not sure how you'd tell that if you can't thread it...

    It's a 15-91,... does that help the compulsion?

    I think they either want to sell it for $450, or want someone to show them how to thread it, neither of which is likely going to occur.

    I wonder what that attachment with all of the buttons does. Must be rare.
