    Early 1930s antique singer sewing machine in fair condition all components in tact....needs restoration....all serious buyers text me

    Whatever he is smoking, I think I need some.
    "Pin Rash" = definition: When a person wraps a length of fabric around the neck of a sewing machine and uses the fabric as a pin cushion.

    Results of "Pin Rash" = Pins poke through the wrapped fabric and scratch the finish on the neck of the sewing machine.

    This machine has a SEVERE case of 'pin rash'. Normally, on a Singer that has pin rash, only the "S" and "i" show damage. This machine has it so bad that "S-i-n-g-e" and most of the "r" are gone.

    LOL! Like the old Wendy's Commercial "Where's the Beef!" Where's the machine? Who take a picture of the bottom of the foot controller?

    Sure would be nice if they shared a picture of the machine - ESPECIALLY since the "AH" number they showed is a 7 digit number and the "AH" list I have only goes up to 6 digit numbers.

    For only $120, you would think they would just keep it. $120 won't get them very far even if they are able to sell it.

    But it's been in the family for "decades"! Isn't that worth something? lol
