Ode to Sewing Machines #46

 Many of you follow my "Ode to the Sewing Machine" posts.  We've all seen the ads on craigslist, ebay and elsewhere.  The clueless sellers give those of us who sew a belly laugh, or two!  Here's installment #46!  

That's a new way to thread a machine!

All you need is $150 and a tetanus shot for this pile of junk.



Ewww!  No wonder it's been listed for 9 months with no takers, even for $10.

It's the rust that adds to the price of the machine.

                   Rusty and missing a bobbin slide plate.  You need a tetanus shot to use it!


Not a San Francisco Golden Gate Badge!  It's a Centennial and even then it's not worth $350.


                 A lovely 201 in a sought-after cabinet. In this guys area, $180 on a good day.


                                                This is worth maybe $15 if you sell it for scrap.

Tetanus Shot needed to use it!


And this next one has so much wrong with it!  
It's not a treadle, or a Featherweight or
a Singer, nor is it in a Box.

For the low, low price of $77, you can own
35 lbs of rust and filth. OR make payments on it.




This is the only picture and you have to show up to find out what is inside. 
All for $2,500!
