    Anybody need a quick giggle? Check out this one. I'm not saying that it isn't a nice machine, but this person is delusional about pricing. Museum-quality, indeed!

    And so the machine will continue to sit in the same spot that it's been in since 1925....

    That machine was not "museum quality" the day it was new..... It was a great machine, but not a musuem piece in any form.

    It's been refinished so it's not museum quality. The seller lives in La La Land.

    Actually being refinished does not preclude it from a museum. The VERY expensive G&B Parlor machine that I sold on my Honeymoon is being refinished (as per the museums request) as we speak (OH so not by me...)

    Steve I see you're back to your old avatar. I like Singer 27s. They're really nice but I agree with you. Not a museum piece by any stretch of the imagination.
