Art deco parlor cabinets are amazing.

I know! And no slide plate or pedal/knee bar. There's needle rash and other dings in the paint. The bentwood is nonlocking, which to me means busted. That motor mount should almost be a dealbreaker if you don't have spare parts/be willing to fix it. Plus, what kind of damage did it take for that mount to be busted like that?

That's why I'm asking, am I missing something?

All it takes are two people who really want the same item. The price may seem high but most of the flaws are pretty easy fixes and it doesn't look too bad in the pics. They can't all be $20 like we like to brag about.

That's a lovely decal pattern but I'm confused too. Maybe it's "just like the one Grandma had" for someone, or something.
