There are more but I'll stop here.

Don't you love it when they say "comes with a table"....without the "table" it wouldn't work....so, is it not a necessary component? As opposed to something it would just sit on? Wow...people are dense!!! LOL

I loved the ad where it said the needle still moves up and down so obviously it must still work. Hellooo!!! I've several machines where the needles move up and down but they don't sew because they need some more work done to them.

COQ, that second listing, the 99, They aren't bidding on the machine as much as they are that extension piece! Still...that's pretty high...as nice as it all is!

I would love to have that cabinet. It is gorgeous.

I don't know what the market is like for this type of machine, but it does seem like it could be worth what they are asking for. I'm sure at one time this cabinet and machine would sell way over a thousand.
