Yes, I did. When I saw it I just couldn't resist even though I have several of the old Vintage Black Shiny Singer machines. I just seem to be drawn to them. I am now on the lookout for the Child's Singer 20 Sewing Machine. I would dearly love to have one of those. They too are so, so cute. The finish is in really good shape. Just needs a little TLC. I am so, so happy.

I bought a spartan for about the same price with a portable case. I have a Singer about the same vintage. Other than being heavy they are great machines to sew on. I leave one or the other up all the time. I have gotten so that I use my vintage machines more than the newer ones. I think it must be the durability of them. I never seem to need to adjust the tension or anything else. Just add oil as needed. They don't even seem to gather fuzz like the newer ones.I thnik you did GOOD!
