Singer machine
#1
I have a chance to buy a Singer 99 machine for $99.00 plus $50.00 for the case. Would you do it? I am in a quandree about this. I don't really want to spend that much money, but if you think it's a good deal, I might spring for it. What does everyone think? Thanks for your input. I value your opinions.

I like mine, its a hand cranked model. I am teaching my granddaughter to sew with it. She likes being able to have complete control.

integral part of the machine. $50 for the whole thing is good.
they are easy to find. great stitching, but heavy machine.

Thank you for info. Glad I didn't jump for it. Asked her to include case for the price and she didn't answer me. Oh well, I'll just keep looking. I think some people are looking to get rich on these old machines. Had a lady from Craigs list send pic of treadle machine, really beat up and I had to ask to see more pic of just the machine, which she didn't but she wanted $350.00!!!! She better keep it if it's worth that much.
