The pics aren't great but this is actually an incredible machine:

It's a rebadged Anker RZ made in W. Germany.

KRA that is a nice machine.
HelenAnn I agree. They're trying to sucker in a higher offer than it's really worth. I don't play guessing games like that. Tell me what you want up front and I'll decide if I want to deal with you. I had a nearly identical machine in great running condition that I bought at Goodwill for $25. I've since passed it to a friend of ours.
That W&G is nice but there's no way I could justify the current price of $721.

Here's a Wheeler & Wilson treadle base for a reasonable amount, especially if you need it for parts.

Wheeler & Wilson treadle base, it must have been a good price , it's been deleted already. I was looking at portland maybe 45 minutes ago.

well N****A ended up paying $817 plus a 41 lbs shipping rate. Thats going to be around $1.50 a lb, 90% chance something will be broken in shipping..

sounds like a $1000 happy dance. cause they save enough $$$$ for a couple bottles of JD.
