my luck out story: on craigslist, $50 for grandma's featherweight, but the motor is a problem. ok, i follow vssb and i'm game. drive to the other side of the island, talk story, buy the machine. clean it up. plug it in. no light. darn. press pedal-- it tries to run. slowly. notice the bobbin winder is pressing on the belt. lift it up. sews like a dream! oh, yeah, find an extra bulb in the case, replace the burned out one. light!
D'OH!!!!!! At least there was a photo...
ReplyDeleteThat word, it doesn't mean what she obviously thought it meant. :(
ReplyDeleteHa ha. Craigslist is the WORST for that since they don't have thumbnails (I prefer Kijiji for this reason).
ReplyDeleteUGH. Totally disappointing!!!! Dear Craigslist, stop playing with my emotions!
ReplyDeleteMy daughter has this machine, its really great for little beginners.
