This machine is in horrid condition....you can have it for only $99!!! What a deal!!! LOL

Don't forget to figure in the shipping. A $130.00 for that machine is incredible:thumbdown:

Oh, they're high all right! I might could sell some of what they're smoking and make some serious money. :shock: :p

Well, he/she has reduced the price a couple of times. Keep waiting and it may come down even lower. I am sure that the book would be interesting to have if you a collector but not for me at that price.

This is a 5 part PDF download for the Students Manual of Machine Sewing. Thanks to Sew-Classic for this booklet and it is free.
