Today in a local antique store/mall, I saw 3 FWs. One was a 222, black, priced at $1200. One was a beige priced at $695 and the third was a celery white for $895. All had cases. Not buying any but NY daughter wondered about the 222 price. I thought it reasonable but am wondering if it is priced reasonably. I know the others are exorbitant.

It's probably cheaper to buy one in the UK, ship it, and get it rewired for US current.
I mean, it's like $600 for a UK machine. $1500 is a US one.

it would be a bit cheaper.. maybe... factor in a new motor, new light and foot pedal plus the costs of rewiring and you'll save a few hundred, but it's collect-ability is non-existent afterward as it's no longer anything close to 'original'. Just my opinion, though I have thought of doing it from time to time.

Hmmm I'm dreaming of trip "down under" this spring maybe I will shop a bit. This guy says there is a gizmo to control the power.
