At that price, the machine should have been ready to go... If it had to have work, the owner should have done it before trying to sell, or reduce the price to an "as is" sale. It's probably a minor thing causing the problem, but still that price is top dollar and you should get a ready-to-sew machine or keep looking.

Motor ran, threaded right, loosened tension, tightened tension, and all it would do is break the thread!
This little beauty is near MINT..all original, no rubs, pin marks, etc, in a mint case with all of the attachments, no book though..price was $325!
I really want her...BUT...with not being sure what is wrong with her, I had to walk away!
