http://cosprings.craigslist.org/fuo/3397944501.html last item in the listing. I really really want this treadle but she's smoking crack if she thinks she's going to get 500.00 for it. I sent her an email but she didn't respond. I may send her another one. What would y'all pay? It appears to be a 15 clone. I'm only drawn to it mainly because its German and so am I

Oh well. She has my name and number and when she realizes I'm right maybe she will call me. I still have a few items on my wish list and a German treadle is one of them. Figured maybe I could find a good Gritzner but this is the first accessible one I've come across.
