Can anyone tell me the model and anything about the machine? Is this a good price?

Thank you!!! Annemarie

This looks like this might be it. It looks like the color is blue, can't give any advice about price though.

maybe not. I'll keep looking

Looks like a Style-Mate 347, but the colors are off.

$75 seems a bit high. $40 would be the maximum I would want to pay, though prices in Alaska might be different than those in the lower 48.

That is a Singer 237. Basically, a 301 with zigzag. I would pay $75 for it given your location, etc. Plus you have a walking foot with it. That alone is worth another $20. I say go for it.

The 237 has the bobbin winder on the top, so it isn't one of those.

That looks like a 347 Style Mate. Seems like the colors vary, but look at sewingmachinemanuals.net under the Singers. Seems just like the one on the cover for the 347.

OMGoodness, Robin's Egg Blue. I need one of these.

The machine in Alaska does not have any built in stitches and doesn't take cams. So it only does straight stitch and ziz zag. The Etsy machine takes cams. So it is more versatile.

"That is a Singer 237. Basically, a 301 with zigzag." I'm not sure how it can be compared to a 301. The Alaska machine takes a class 66 drop-in bobbin, and has a internal belt drive. The 301 has a removable bobbincase and is all gear driven with no belts. The 301 is a precision machine, and top of the line. These other two machines were good machines, but closer to the bottom of the line.
