Geez, what are they smokin? I took the box to my PO to ship to the person who was supposed to get it and they would not take it the way it was---had writing FED EX all over it. I took home to repkg and sent seller an email last night and this morning got one back that said wait don't ship. 1st it was asap, now wait--she is supposed to get movey back from FED EX. I would love to keep the hand crank. I wonder what was paid for it. never saw it on ebay for sale.

I sent it to the person who was supposed to get that one and they were supposed to send me the featherweight.
Sent me a black 301. I really like the 301 but I already have 2 of them. Course I have 2 featherweights too.
Messaged the seller ..No idea what will happen now. been almost an adventure. SSUZZ

She refused to take it back or refund some of my money. I took it to my repair man and he told me it was a mess. It cost me 140 dollars to get it in working order.....Needless to say it was my first e-bay experience and my last......Good luck...I hope they make it right with you.
