[QUOTE=makitmama;6066896]hmmm $1500 bucks. :)

For some reason people have started to think these machines are very valuable. Most of our old Singers where given to us.

The preppers are driving the prices up on the people powered machines...I see a lot of recommendations that folks should have one or two in their "supplies"....

Yea Steve, I want to know if the NON-picture did it justice or not too. Hmmmm.
...Not working but in good shape on my yard. Hmmmm. Kind of like - More Rust than sewing machine, and more thatch than lawn. Sorry, but take it back to the boat and put it back on the anchor chain. It is worth more there.
