First thought after perusing the photos,"What the heck is anyone going to do with a truckload of old Patchers." I know, some one will think that is a great buy.

This showed up on Facebook in a vintage industrial sewing machine group too. The general consensus there was that the price might be okay for 50 complete, functional and ready to go machines, but the machines being sold are incomplete, rusty from bad storage, most likely worn, and probably needs alot of work to get running if they aren't used for taking parts from. Perhaps $5000 would make more sense.

That would be my opinion also. I think this seller will be waiting a long time to sell that whole lot at any price but it would have to be around 5K for me to even bother looking at it. Just about every machine pictured close up is either missing parts or rusted and old patchers are picky bastards.
