This, not so much - 1927 Singer for $450
"Machine has original treadle as well as upgraded with electric peddle & small sewing lamp."

Cool Royal ZigZag, but $225, seriously?

That first one is a very good deal to me. Good thing I don't live closer.
If I bring many more home I'll be sleeping under them outside. If I'm lucky I may have another treadle machine in need of restoration on it's way to me this weekend. A friend down in Portland has one he needs a new home for.

LOL! So I wasn't reading into that as an entitlement problem.Why would someone think that that would be a compelling ad to anyone?

Let's make a deal, take this nice piece off my hands... does the used car salesman thing -ever- work?
