Looks really good with an electric machine on top, combining new with old."

Where's the Crank? "Some oxidation" ??? The rest of the text in the ad is a strange way to sell something.

Potentially pretty cabinet but looks like it is on crutches. And then they have the gall to suggest that it would look nice with a pretty new electric machine sitting on top...where is the beautiful grand old lady that belongs INSIDE that cabinet?\

good grief - I wonder what a good offer would be on one of those? I have 3 to get rid of - I highly doubt if anybody will spend $500 no matter how good shape...

"BUT I HAVE TO ADMIT IT HAS BEEN MANY TEARS SINCE I USED IT."

Those "tears" must have fallen right onto and all over the machine.

That looks pretty nice, and the table looks decent. I might go $50 on it if it worked. Maybe a little more.
