Agree 110% Charlee - sometimes it is just ignorance (the ads that use "vintage" and "antique" in the same description kill me) but usually people are trying to make something out to be what it is NOT just so they can hopefully get someone else to buy unawares at inflated prices.

Yeah, the auctions used to drive me nuts, too. But, I guess I'd be in the same boat if I were suddenly selling a bunch of stuff I really didn't know anything about. (which is the case with a lot of sellers)
And old black Singer - must be rare. And antique. And one-of-a-kind.
