Default Bench Top Thread Injector; Dual Thread Interlacer.

"...multi-adjustible, variable feed rate, dual thread interlacer..."

Good one!

The seller is on crack though; they claim it is digital. And, they don't say whether it will sow cherries of pop canz.

Yeesh.

That is a real "head shaker".

That's Miriam. Did she get a relevance post with that?

Chocolate covered strawberries and champagne indeed.

Well -
It's top relevance - at least in my search
I think it's a he - seems to be written from a man's perspective
I think it's a very creative ad for a common machine
In that it can be switched on and off it is - in a way - digital
I give it big style points!

Miriam and her husband are collaborators, remember, in the photo-posting and blurb-writing.

I love it. Dual thread interlacer, thread injector. A Sewing Machine will never look the same! :-) Thanks, Miriam/Miriam's Hub.

That's a great ad.
It kept me entertained and was accurate. I know a lot of us are used to getting machines dirt cheap but $50 for a running sewing machine isn't a crack-headed price to pay. If you pay $20 for a machine on shopgoodwill then have to pay shipping you're going to be right at $50 anyway.

I had insomnia so I got a bit creative.
I didn't post that on here but I did write the CL ad. I plagiarized here and there and then remixed it from stuff I saw on line. Yes it is written for guys to take notice. Most of the vintage machines I sell seem to go to guys. A lot of women don't have the sense to know a good machine when they see one. A 301 sneaked in there, too. LOL. How did you miss that? No it doesn't sow pop cans and plant cherry trees. I have had a lot of compliments on that ad already.

And it proves that CL has decided to make "Relevant" ad placement a creative writing assignment

I'm so glad I am relevant! Probably a first.
