    I agree with your wife and that is a 301 from what I can see. I'd be on that like white on rice if I lived close enough.

    You and me both Chris! Geeze, what a nice little outfit!

    Charlee I know that Singer started around 1851 and the person who posted the ad doesn't know much - but, who cares! I still want that machine! It is so awesome looking! I love the weird looking machines!

    Too bad I have my quota of machines right now. That 301 in Dayton is a fantastic deal... Too far anyway.

    I've called about the 301, but there was no answer. I left my name and number and am impatiently waiting for a return call. I love the cabinet and want a black 301. I am trying not to send an email as the ad said no emails. Come on, telephone, ring.

    Okay, call me Impatient, but I called again. A woman from W Virginia is looking at tomorrow, but they don't make connections or she doesn't want it, it's mine. And no, I'm not driving from Northern Michigan. My son is working in Middletown, OH which doesn't look very far on the map. Can't have the big black truck coming home empty. Wish me luck, y'all.
