Depends on the condition and how much you are prepared to pay for a very small machine that only does straight stitch. I was given mine by a friend, and I do love it, but the size and the single stitch are limiting. My pick-up-and-go travel machine of first choice is usually the Elna Lotus Stella Air Electronic.

And the prices right now are because they've become "collectibles." So some of the folks who pay the really high prices aren't actually using the machines. They are just collecting them.

I picked mine up for about £100 from the local SM shop. I do take along to events where a SM might just come in handy as it is so easy to use.

I've seen them listed for sale online over here for $350 or more. Crazy.
