Steve they're probably too new for you. The Redeye in the parlor cabinet is in great shape. The cabinet has some great wood in the top too. If I wanted a Redeye that would be the one to get. I've seen more parlor cabinets in my area than I have the Trapezoid cabinets, that's why I showed that one. The 306 isn't bad either.

I am going to seriously start hating you if you don't stop posting pictures of cheap, nice VS2's I'd love to have unless you are willing to get them for me!

I don't need any cabinets - I only want the machine - whoever picks it up can keep the cabinet LOL!!

SteveH

Ohh, they were cool, but like you said too late for me. (Although the first Sewing Machine I restored was a 1922 Red Eye in a 5 drawer treadle)

Hmmmm it doesn't look clean so I guess that means it doesn't work? Maybe it's an April Fools?

What do you suppose this seller's up to? 2 ads that say "I can fix anything" - surgers included and one that says "Help, we need a sewing machine fixed!"

Maybe I can call and offer the price this 'model' would have sold for as new.

Oh that is comedy gold. Make sure that is not your neighbor who was doing wrong and awful things to an industrial machine before. :P

SteveH

SO not a spartan......

ArchaicArcane

Naw,.. he's far more literate than whoever wrote that ad.

And is that a regular incandescent light bulb? I can't even imagine the pain of touching that one by accident when I lift the presser foot lever!

Rodney

Yup. That's a regular light bulb. I'm really curious about how the back of that machine looks. It's the custom touches like that that have the price so high. Not a bad looking machine. It's just not an $850 machine.
