Sewing machines for sale

Yeah, it's advertising.  I figured I'd give anyone online here an opportunity before I call Missouri Sewing Machine.

I have two machines for sale.  Both are industrial, so if you're in the market for a portable tabletop machine to make Barbie clothes, don't bother.

Singer 111W.  This is a walking-foot machine I've used for all of my leather work.  It will handle up to 1/4" of leather.  It's tempermental, but works really well.  You can pick them up used from MSM (when they have them) for about $800. 

I'm asking $500.


Brother DB2-B755 Straight Stitch machine.  This is the workhorse of the Brother stable, a very fast and very capable straight stitch machine.  Dial adjustable stitch length, with a backup bar.  Self-oiling.  Works like a champ and I'm sorry to let it go.  Retails for about $1500. 

Asking $1000.

I'm calling Missouri Sewing Machine tomorrow.  Just FYI.

I just drooled on myself. Damn. On one hand, I'm sad I didn't see this earlier, but on the other, my budget is really glad I didn't.

([livejournal.com profile] duane_kc thought he'd be all funny and show me this post. I will inflict vengenance upon him later.) :p
