There's a Featherweight up for bid for $150.00 with only one day left and there are no bids. Looks good to me, I wonder what's wrong with it?

The shipping is high. Also there are a lot of scratches on the bed and the Singer letters on the light have a big scratch. I bought mine at my local quilt shop and payed $275. The bad part is it has no attachments. The good part is he checked it all over and I could see what I was buying.
I may be able to pick up the attachments but I'm thinking I'll use my Janome for everything that isn't straight sewing anyway. I wouldn't buy one on line unless it looked like it was in perfect condition or if it was a super bargain. Never sure what you'll get.

Starting bid is toooo high, most waits til the end of time so they wont have to bid against anyone else to make the price higher. The shipping cost is outrageous too as they are lightweight to mail. If starting price was $30 then u will see lots of bidding on it...
