Default This makes me wanna cry .... :-(

I have 3 Singer 66 Redeyes and none of them are as nice as this machine was.

{ http://www.shopgoodwill.com/auctions...-17975923.html }

If they'd ship I'd go for it, cos I can use the parts. Poor machine .....

May the fleas of a 1000 camels infest the home of whoever did this.

It's one of the nicer ones I've seen but that's still no excuse! You could arrange for a third party yo pick it up and ship it to you.

if it where close I'd buy it. I have the Red prefect Victorian style shade for it. It would look perfect sitting next to the others, nice looking base they made, they used garments at the holes.

thats nothing more than another way of saving a $25 item. I'm sure 90% of the people seeing this would be very happy with it sitting in there home.

xxxxxxxxxx,

I do believe that although you are entitled to your opinion, that 90% of us will DISagree with it. That machine was in too good a condition to destroy like that.

Sigh, what a waste.

And no I would not display that ...... atrocity ..... anywhere in my garage let alone my home. After stripping it of all useful parts I'd scrap the head.
