It's a lovely lot: I'd have thought $200 - $250

OMG.

Do you like the beer and the lighter on the table, and the giant screen tee-vee right behind the sewing machine? Lil scratched up indeed. Nice, um, price. (!)

The price is right (free), but what is it? I emailed the seller asking for a picture or model number or description, but no response yet. If this isn't rescued today it might end up in the trash!

Is a Bernina 810 vintage? Is it a good machine? This one is $100 which, just going by completed ebay auctions, seems like a good buy.

Granted it's a 222, but $3,900? It doesn't even come with a penguin foot.
It does have some pricey additions, *maybe* $300 for those?

It's probably just a lesser version of the 830. People go cuckoo for Bernina machines, and that one looks to have all of the extras. Can't tell if that one picture shows a crack, or a thread, and the fact that they don't show the front of the machine is always weird, but at the very least, all of the parts should be worth more than $100. If the accessory box has feet and other stuff, it alone might be worth the asking price.

I'd offer $70-$80 and see if they would take that.

And open the top to make sure that cam gear isn't cracked.

I've been watching accessories for about 7 months on ebay - this unit has between $500 and $700 of accessories if sold individually. I've been amazed at what some of them go for. Two weeks ago a Penguin foot did sell for $600. Had a reserve and one bidder kept up until they got it removed - so it wasn't like a bidding war going on. I'd love to gets some of these accessories - but I'll have to luck into them as I can't afford those prices LOL!!

That might have $30 worth of needles and bobbins alone.

This one's just "dumb", I think they looked the serial number of the motor up:
