I saw this old Singer posted on Craigslist and decided to check it out tomorrow. The seller says it's still available and the machine still works. $50....you think it's a good price???
|
It looks good.
|
Not for $50. These sell for much less, in this condition, in CA.
|
the base of it looks a little rough....I agree that $50 is too high...I'd offer $30
|
Thank you for your honest opinions. I think I will let this one go and try asking my nephew if he's ready to part with my sister's treadle instead. That would have more history to it.
|
good decision...not worth the 50
|
Just seen this thread. So pleased you didn't buy it.
How can the seller say it works and have it in a condition where you can't test it? It's not even set in a base. I wouldn't give two quid for it unless I was going to massacre it for parts. Old machines are like buses. Another one always comes along, but you just don't know how long you'll have to wait. |

Thank you all for your wise words to sway me from making this poor investment. Hubby said he saw a yard sale the other day and wished he'd known I was "looking" for a oldie. LOL Guess they do come up periodically in Hawaii. We are so isolated sometimes.
