I knew that sooner or later we would see resale on the faux Featherweights. Here is the first listing I have seen:

They are ugly when new, and even uglier when used!

I totally agree with you :thumbup:

Looks like they don't hold up any better than any other plastic wonder

Worse,.. the black shows every mark.

I didn't realize they marketed these as a featherweight... when I saw the post, I thought it was going to be the alphasew "Quilter's Portable"

I've also seen another black plastic machine being sold for denim/jeans - designed to look "cool". Should be a few of those popping up around the place soon enough, at least in Australia.

Just saw my first cheap plastic Brother machine in an op-shop recently - the one that retails here for about $130. I told the woman who worked there that she'd be seeing plenty of those in the years to come!

I had to post this one!!! 11K

LOL I'm thinking the guy is trying to collect email addresses so he can sell them. Try $11.00 to be realistic.

Two great styles. But not together. http://cleveland.craigslist.org/fuo/3755701366.html
