Wanted: Sewing Machine

Okay... I LOVE to sew. I almost have a need for it, like sex. I don't have a sewing machine. I would love one that already has a cabnet. Either for cheap, or for free. Will get lots of love and lots of use!!! I like to alter clothes, and what not, and I have lots (I mean LOTS) of material just itching to be used. (which means, i can turn your old favorite band t- into a pillowcase/pillow/skirt/tubetop/ just about anything!)

So please, if you have one, or know someone who has a good working machine, perferably Singer (since they easier to buy parts for IMO), but at this point, any machine will do, as long as it is usable right from the get go. Either leave me a message here, or PM me with details.

Keep in mind that money is tight, and I am not looking to buy an antique, for art, i want a funtioning machine! :)

Thanks, everyone.

Er.... how much would you be willing to pay for such a device?

well, since my room mate will be paying for it, its up to her.

I'd assume under $80. money is uber tight (to a degree of which you have no idea), so yeah. i know even used machies are expensive.......

Oh, I think we would. :sorcerer:

Anyway, why don't you just save the extra cash and buy a new one? They really aren't that badly priced.

I picked Target at random, probably be able to get a better deal somewhere else.

E-Bay is also a great thing these days.

i supose you are right, but i wanted to see what i could get used. :)

I'll keep looking, but if anyone you know wants to get rid of their working machine, let me know, please? :)

Look on Craigslist. I got my industrial on there for free! (I had to pay to have it rewired for a new plug but so what!?)

It might be a long shot but have you checked the local salvation army, good will or st. vincents? There's a chance you could find one there for cheap.

Haven't been able to get around, since gas money is lacking....

But I will keep that in mind, when/if I am ever out and about.

:)

and if you know someone that's got a sewing machine that's got at least 8 different stitch styles, and is just collecting dust, ask them about it, and if they are willing to part with it if they'd be willing to give it away, or what they'd take for it. :) Thanks guys, for all the suggestions....

oh, and Craig's List seems to be selling nothing but antiques! :sad:

and free cycle aways seems to have ones that "need some attention" I don't have the money to get the damn things serviced, right away! *rips hair out*

this is all very frustraiting... seems when i didn't need/want one, they were falling from the damn sky... now I want one, and... yeah well, story of my damn life, I tell ya....
