Nice machine, though. They likely found it at an estate sale for $5-10, oiled it, then threw it up on eBay for quick cash. Doesn't look like they did anything to it.

Shipping is free so it does put the asking price into some perspective. Getting that machine to Seattle would cost about $50 and I wouldn't pay more than $30 - $40 for the machine locally, so for myself it's still overpriced.

Here's an odd one.

It has a Centennial badge but the serial number shows it as being allocated July 29, 1949 according to ISMACS. I was also thinking 99ks had reverse by then.

I saw a huge machine yesterday with two bobbins just like those. I can't remember the model # but it's a Singer two needle hemstitcher. They were saying it was a Wheeler/Wilson design of machine. Very cool.
