There's a Featherweight up for bid for $150.00 with only one day left and there are no bids. Looks good to me, I wonder what's wrong with it?

Maybe the shipping cost has deterred some people. I'd definitely watch it if you are interested. Even with the high shipping it's not a bad deal for the condition it looks to be in.

I'm not a Featherweight baby, I'm more geared to the larger machines, 15's, 201's etc. I just thought someone else may be interested. Featherweights seem to be a hot topic here :lol:

i'm sure people are watching it.

the smart people don't bid until the last few moments before the auction closes.

Shipping is way high, in my opinion.

It's probably the shipping.

The shipping is high. Also there are a lot of scratches on the bed and the Singer letters on the light have a big scratch. I bought mine at my local quilt shop and payed $275. The bad part is it has no attachments. The good part is he checked it all over and I could see what I was buying.
I may be able to pick up the attachments but I'm thinking I'll use my Janome for everything that isn't straight sewing anyway. I wouldn't buy one on line unless it looked like it was in perfect condition or if it was a super bargain. Never sure what you'll get.

Starting bid is toooo high, most waits til the end of time so they wont have to bid against anyone else to make the price higher. The shipping cost is outrageous too as they are lightweight to mail. If starting price was $30 then u will see lots of bidding on it...

He has a lot of other machines for sale too. Maybe someone will get a good deal.
