Look...only 500.00 and you can own one of the first machines ever made...complete with electrical and all. I emailed this idiot long ago informing them how misinformed they were but they keep posting it day after day anyway.

It may sow, but dose it weed?
Yep I said that!

Yikes! There is one of those just posted on my local cl for $300 with tons of feet, walking foot and cut and sew attachment. If I had the extra cash right now I would pick it up myself.

I agree. It's so badly rusted you can't tell what it was. The rear inspection plate make it look turn of the last century...
Looks like a bunch of machines I found in a junk shop about 100miles from the city. I think I mourned so much for them, I made him an offer he wouldn't accept. Probably good for me.

Poor guy. I called about an ad on cl with many singer machines. This guy has 20 of his moms machines to sell, mostly in bentwood boxes. He has no clue about any of them. He has 1 221 with no case or attachments and his dad is insisting on no lower than $600-700. I told him I couldn't get anywhere near that, lol.

This one looks good. Overpriced and someone ruined the cabinet. :thumbdown:
