Sears Kenmore vintage 1813
 
A beautiful vintage Sears Kenmore 1813 was turned into a thrift store where I work. It has a case of cams and a case of accessories and buttonholer. It looks to be well maintained. Any idea of price?

Except for a few machines (like Singer Featherweight that can go for a lot of money) most vintage machines sell relatively cheaply. I've seen 50's Singers (301, 401) go for under $50 at garage sales. Even though it's in good shape, it's probably not worth that much. I think there was a thread on patternreview.com about someone buying one of these machines that had barely been used with all accessories (some still in original packaging) for $100.

In the world of VSMs, there are millions and millions of Japanese machines out there so they really don't have all that much $$ value. Unless you price it real low it will sit there until half price day and maybe even longer.

You could look on seller sites with prices and bids.

I picked up the same machine in near mint condition for $20.00 at a Habitat for Humanity Restore a few months ago. Similar machines on eBay fetch anywhere from 50 to Wii bucks.

I meant 50 to 200 bucks.
