around here you can't find any for less than $250, and a more typical price is $500. good job at the garage sale!

holy cow, there is a 222k in there. Wow, there were not many of those made in the world. Awesome find. That's the one I'd keep for sure, but the other 2 look like nice old ones with the chrome stitch length indicators and possibly the scroll face plates, but I cant' see for sure. Wonderful that you found these. I would die if I saw these at a garage sale.

I darn near died when it was pointed out to me too! I was buying them from pictures ... still haven't seen them. One of the 221's has a scroll front plate but the 222 and the other 221 are straited. I still can't believe I just - out of boredom - asked my DD & her SO to check them out for me. They called and asked for pictures so until they picked them up for me had not seen them either. What I can't believe is that they were leftover fromt eh garage sale. Someone bought the treadle machine but left these!
