Sorry, I'm ignorant.

Think $300 & up. It's crazy how much people want to sell these things for. Too much money for me. They aren't worth that much IMHO.

DH and DD think I need to hang on to it for a while. I have promised a friend first chance at it. I'm thinking I'll ask $200 for it. To high to low?

Jennifer22206 06-10-2011 06:17 AM

what a great deal you got! :) Lucky you.

I am so jealous! Exactly where in W.Mich did you steal this FW (LOL)?

Very fair. :)

Wow! What a deal! I paid $400 for mine at a yard sale. I never seem to find the people who "just want to get rid" of them.

Congratulations!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Enjoy it.

Great deal. Lucky you!
I just emailed someone tonight about 2 different ones on Craig's list. They are $150 each.

amazon 06-10-2011 09:06 PM

Deal!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!Congrats :thumbup: Pictures?

cabinfever 06-10-2011 09:28 PM

$200 sounds about right if it's in working order & has the basic functional attachments with a case.

When they start pricing $400 +higher, they should be in top visual & working condition & have most attachments included as well as a complete case in great condition.
There are "vintage copy" cases out there that follow a similar construction method if anyone is looking.

DorisPa 06-11-2011 08:21 AM

Congratulations on your new baby

Gramma B 06-11-2011 08:25 AM

Wish I were there ahead of you. Still looking for feather weight. Good for you!

Tinabug 06-13-2011 08:03 PM

I think you did yourself proud. Sweet.
