I'd pass too! Decals aren't that good, the slide plate is missing, can't see if the bobbin case is there, the cabinet...well...

One of my favorites, too. I got mine for $20, decals are great, it too was missing slide plate and was missing a base. I put in a wood base and turned it into a hand crank.

I then scroll slowly, building the anticipation of what I will see. Then I giggle a little!!! (or sometimes I just bust out loud laughing!)
