    Looks really good with an electric machine on top, combining new with old."

    Potentially pretty cabinet but looks like it is on crutches. And then they have the gall to suggest that it would look nice with a pretty new electric machine sitting on top...where is the beautiful grand old lady that belongs INSIDE that cabinet?\

    good grief - I wonder what a good offer would be on one of those? I have 3 to get rid of - I highly doubt if anybody will spend $500 no matter how good shape...

    "BUT I HAVE TO ADMIT IT HAS BEEN MANY TEARS SINCE I USED IT."

    Those "tears" must have fallen right onto and all over the machine.

    That looks pretty nice, and the table looks decent. I might go $50 on it if it worked. Maybe a little more.
