Candace, Charlee, irishrose,
I'm just being silly. I'm no newby at these auctions. I've won a lot and lost some, no big deal. When I'm dead serious about an auction I'll have a BIG bid on it. I expect to be bid against. To get something with only one bid rarely happens. As for not posting it here, it don't matter. As you said GoodWill is public and the C****1 person may not even know this forum exists. Joe |

We were outbid on the last two machines we went for and had just about decided to call it quits for a while.
Until ...... we saw this one: http://www.shopgoodwill.com/viewItem.asp?ItemID=9612816 Over 30 built in stitches, three position zig-zag needle, and a case with a drawer. That fascinates me no end. One of my plans for the future is to design and build my own machine cases. So I want this machine / case combo for the decorative stitches and the case. ~DIBS~ Hopefully there won't be too many others who want it, cos we're going deep pockets on this one. Joe |

I am sure that Joe is planning a few other stops along the way to look for more sewing machines. Right Joe?

Can't have too many Featherweights. My wife's black one needs company too. I'm looking for an "inexpensive" white or beige one.

Now to make a trip to INDY to pick it up. I'm hoping it sews as good as it looks. That will make it a fun machine. Here's what the machine looks like. Joe |
Way cool Joe. I am doing the happy dance for you. You are going to love my Morse Fotomatic 4100 Zig Zag.
