nycnycdesign Report post Posted August 14, 2015 (edited) Hey all, Just got back from looking at this nice old Adler cylinder bed. Seller is asking 2300 with table and servo. Runs very nice and puts down a good stitch. I've had very few runins with adlers over the years (minus my cobbler neighbors beautiful old stitcher) so I wanted to see what you all thought about them. Thanks for your opinions in advice, always a huge help. Edited August 14, 2015 by Fortyknotsnosmoke Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Wizcrafts Report post Posted August 14, 2015 I see a binder attachment on the right. Does this machine have a drop feed feed dog? Or, does it always stay up and just move forward and backward? Some binder machines are made that way and stitch length suffers when you do normal stitching. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Constabulary Report post Posted August 14, 2015 Lots of money for this machine. Is it from a dealer or private person? Anyway - I think it is way too expensive. W/O knowing the marked on your end but I´d say when you pay $1300 it is still NOT a bargain. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Geneva Report post Posted August 14, 2015 I agree with Constabulary. I think this machine is around 40-45 years old. It is not worth what that guy is asking for it. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hockeymender Report post Posted August 14, 2015 Around $1200.00 tops for that machine. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DrmCa Report post Posted August 14, 2015 (edited) When I was buying Pfaff 335 a month ago the dealer had that same Adler too (but with a knee press which I can't stand) and both machines were offered for just over $900 Canadian, which is roughly US$800. That includes the K legs and a table. Servo would be extra CDN$130. Pfaff I bought was hardly ever used. Canadian prices on everything are higher than in the US, so you should have lots of room to bargain. Edited August 14, 2015 by DrmCa Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
