That is the Mission cabinet. It's a style I love. I can't believe it sat for 10 days. Here it would have been gone within a couple hours, certainly as soon as I saw it.

I think the main problem was a poor Craigslist post, the machine itself looks great, but he just had a picture of the closed cabinet that he took from the Internet. Better pictures and it would have been gone quickly I'd guess. I haven't done any cleaning on this, this is the way it was given to me.

He said his plan was to turn it into a bar that popped up when he opened it. I laughed pretty hard when he said that.

That's an awesome cabinet, I have sworn not to bring another one home but I'd have had a huge struggle passing that one up; I'd have found space for it somehow. Who needs a dining room table, anyway? The machine is beautiful too - what a score! I'm really glad that didn't get turned into a bar!

That White cabinet is assume! I've hoped to luck into one like that for some time. I did find one in bad shape with a horrid machine, and the seller would not come down off their $150 price. But it's just was well, I've not got room for what I already have!

I would have laughed too, and I would have cried if he really did it. Great save.
