This post sounds like a first world problem. It also sounds like some Guerilla advertising gimmick for Cobra. I’m not really sure what to make of it. You appear to have worked yourself into a state over a sewing machine you’ve never worked with but suddenly can’t live without. If nothing else is acceptable in your mind you will just have to wait. My advice is to spent he extra $500 on a good therapist instead.

There ya go.  Short, to the point, and probably stated more diplomatically than I might have

Thanks for the laugh! My thoughts coincide with yours exactly. Heck, I would buy an old Singer 153-101 or equivalent with reverse by Singer, Juki or pfaff, I would even go for a Consew 227R and save the rest.. He could even buy a 441 clone for that money.

If this is real, Call Bob Kovar at Toledo Industrial Machine, he will help you out, great guy to deal with!

Please dont say such unintelligent nonsense.

FWIW Industrialsewingmachineman is a drop shipper,he doesn't stock anything so since Cobra is shut down he won't be able to send one either.
