Wheeler and Wilson D-9 272739-8
I need help understanding the best way to sell my antique sewing machine with stand and parts. This is not my area of expertise. It was my great grandmother’s machine. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Welcome aboard. Stand and parts description will need work where ever you want to sell it. Is it a treadle? electric? Parts can mean a controller or a whole array of accessories. Pictures are always good and shoot them from both sides of the machine.
You will have to decide if you are willing to ship ( not generally recommended.) Many of us hang around craigslist and Facebook marketplace loo0king for our finds. and just for a bit of history. Singer bought W W and made the D-9 with thei own badging for a while. Don't expect to get rich. Millions of machines were made and many are in great shspe.

Just an FYI, the pictures need to be smaller than 2MB, even though it says 5MB.
You might want to look at ebay and the Sold amount for similar machines. However, that can be deceptive as some do not give the amount that they actually sold for. Also, it seems some areas get different amounts for the same machine. If you have an original manual and attachments and no parts missing, it may go for a little more than a machine that is a head only. Condition of the machine and base should also be considered.
