if the 301 A is in good shape and it needs to be in excellent shape with case and attachments for that price....you will love it
be sure to check the lift up bed, it should move easily or it has been dropped.

PS, can you drop the feed dogs or place a throat plate on it that will allow you to free motion.

If you can afford it without having to put aside something important then go for it. If it will strain you financially then pass.

If you want it and can afford it, get it.

If you're downsizing, I'd pass.
But Illinois isn't too far from me; I'll come get it! PM me if that could work. I've been looking for one!

How many chances are you going to get to get one of these? Not many, I'm guessing. Sell one or more of the others.

Pass, doesn't the Lord tell us to be content with what He has already provided? There is probably someone out there that doesn't have one, much less 7 machines.

OK, don't hate me for saying this. I am sort of an anti-hoarder. Do you NEED this machine, or WANT it? Depending on the answer, you probably should pass, cause Im guessing the answer is WANT...
