Art Report post Posted February 8, 2008 Probably one of the better needle feed jump foot machines, but for that price you could buy 7 or 8 Ferdinand 900s and just pile them in the corner if they stopped working. I've noticed a few folks asking outrageous prices for classic machines and they may be targeting the naive consumer, you know, it weighs as much as my car, why should it cost any less?

You can advertise your machine for free in the Market Place section of the forum. There's a sub-forum there for used sewing machines. Don't advertise it in this section. Make sure that you include pictures and your asking price, as well as if you want people to contact you using our messages system, or by email. If by email, please obfuscate the email address so it doesn't get scraped by email harvester bots. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
