They see the gold decals and think that with the price of gold these days... ~shrug~ :lol:

Miz Donna, if it was in a wood case, it wasn't a featherweight... :) Most likely a 99 if it was small, and $25 wasn't a bad price!

Wow! I have 2 treadles. Wonder if they would give me $500 a piece for them and they could double their money on them! ROFL

The sad thing is is that a couple of people have contacted them about their price being way off they still have the item listed on Craigslist! I would have pulled the ad until I got a better perspective on the pricing or pulled the ad all together or reduced the price. . . .

I saw an ad for a featherweight for $900 and it wasn't in that good of shape. Don't know if it was sold or not. Saw another singer that was listed as a flip top featherweight, it wasn't a featherweight.
