Valuable Singer Accessories?
 
Can someone tell me what items(s) in the ended auction below was so valuable? Lots of competition and it ended at $240 with shipping!

The winning bidder bid early and stuck with it for 5 or 6 days. About 5 other bidders ran him up, so something in that box is valuable.

I've seen most of the items in there, except the Singer Gripper and the Singer Cord Control. And two almost full tubes of motor grease... $240 is a whole bunch, so somebody saw something in there they really wanted.

It looks like the Singer Cord Control is missing, as the Gripper is in that box and probably the gripper box is empty. The blind stitch attachment and the gripper and buttonholer aren't worth that much in my world. Also it only has four or five of the buttonhole cams.

I bet it was the spool of glittery thread.

Is that a walking foot near the blind stitch attachment box? I seem to remember that a walking foot for a Singer Featherweight was worth a bundle.

I don't think so. I believe that's the blind stitch attachment.

I know the attachment you mean. I have one. Prices have recently ranged from about $400 to as high as $2,000 or so. The Featherweight Shop has it listed as "sold out" at $1,849.00.

I don't see it in any of the pictures posted.

So I wasn't missing anything. Just another internet auction gone awry.
