$306.99

LET ME BEGIN BY SAYING I KNOW VERY LITTLE ABOUT THESE FEATHERWEIGHT SEWING MACHINES, NOR AM I A SEAMSTRESS.I DO KNOW THEY ARE HIGHLY SOUGHT AFTER. I RECENTLY PURCHASED THIS MACHINE FROM AN ELDERLY WOMAN WHO APPEARED METICULOUS. THIS IS A SINGER 221J FEATHERWEIGHT SEWING MACHINE SERIAL NUMBER JE158989. IT COMES WITH IT\'S ORIGINAL CASE, FOOT PEDAL AND INSTRUCTION BOOKLET FOR MACHINE NO. 221K5. I AM NOT SURE IF THIS IS THE ORIGINAL BOOKLET THAT WAS GIVEN WITH THE MACHINES PURCHASE. THE BOOKLET HAS A HANDWRITTEN PURCHASE DATE OF 1963. THERE IS ALSO A SINGER ACCESSORIES BOX WITH SOME LUBRICANT AND A COUPLE SMALL PARTS AND TOOLS. THIS MACHINE IS IN VERY GOOD COSMETIC CONDITION WITH ONLY SOME TINY SPOTS OF WEAR ON A FEW EDGES. OTHERWISE THE PAINT IS GREAT. THE VERY BOTTOM IS SUPER CLEAN. I PLUGGED IT IN, THE LIGHT TURNED ON AND WHEN I PRESSED THE FOOT PEDAL THE MOTOR WORKED BUT THE NEEDLE DID NOT GO UP AND DOWN. I SEEM TO REMEMBER THIS SAME PROBLEM FROM A PRIOR sale AND SOMEONE EMAILED ME WITH A SIMPLE FIX BUT I CAN\'T REMEMBER WHAT IT WAS. ALSO, THE MOTOR IN BACK OF THE MACHINE ROCKS BACK AND FORTH WHEN I WIGGLE IT. I BELIEVE ALL IT NEEDS IS A SCREW. THE CASE IS IN VERYGOOD STURDY CONDITION WITH ONLY SOME SOIL AND SOME RUB MARKS ON THE EXTERIOR. FROM WHAT I SEE, THIS IS A VERY NICE EXAMPLE. I AM SELLING IT IN AS IS / AS FOUND CONDITION SO PLEASE offer ACCORDINGLY. THANK YOU!<p>
