    Default vintage Pfaff for $50

    That appears to be a cherry of a machine. Pretty cool how the chair is part of the cabinet. I would love to have a vintage machine like that. You know that some little older lady sewed and sewed on that machine. Probably needs a drop or two of oil, and she'll purr like a kitten!

    My wife is hopping up and down saying: "I want it! I want it!"
    For myself, never mind the machine, I want the cabinet .....

    Nope, not going for it. Couldn't go for the two treadles in West Peoria, so we sure can't go to Chicago.

    ah . . is chicago further from you than W. peoria?

    Don't you wish you were so far away that it was RiDiculously impossible, so you'd feel better? I know it stinks even more for you than it would for me, because you can actually help them, where I would just 'have' them, you know?

    I'm in Springfield, Peoria is in the middle between here and Chicago. Yeah, Chicago is quite a bit farther.
