I am not even sure what I think of this! Taria

Yes, it is a what-the-heck kind of thing. I was most interested in the "review." The reviewer, "Sunshine Always Blair" remarked that she (I guess it's a she) loved Pfaffs, had ordered one of these Pfaff Found Machines, and couldn't wait to receive it. However, the item write-up clearly said that "Each machine is unique. Let us choose for you." Also that "Brands include German-made Singer, as well as Durkopp, Phoenix, ViKtoric, Gritzner and Kohler."

Wonder if Sunshine Always Blair will get a Pfaff or one of the others?

Inquiring minds must know!

That's bizarre. It appears that they're being sold as decorative accents and not as working machines. If all you want is something that looks homey and will need dusting, fine, but I would never buy something like this, expecting it to sew!

Well, I certainly would NOT send anybody $200 for an old machine that I couldn't choose personally, try out personally, and use! If I only wanted a decoration, I know I could pick up a non-working but "cute" machine for next to nothing at a junk shop!

I just saw this today when my new catalog came. Yes, decorative only! They do NOT say they are working machines and it looks like it's a 'pot luck' order, you get what they send you. Around here, (upper midwest), I find these in the $5-10 range at thrift stores and auctions. $199 is a pretty expensive dust collector, just my opinion. Donna

Now there's something I need to do something about. We have two beautiful old Singers that simply sit decorating and requiring dusting. They sew a fine seam and really should belong to someone who could be using them. Polly
