Closed at $251. That was a bargain.

I logged in and checked the auction as it ended.... It jumped from $216 to $251 with less than a minute left. Y'all be easy on me.... I know it was a good deal, but I am completely out of room and didn't have any prospects for an immediate resale to a fellow forum member. I may be downsizing soon and am having to pick and choose. That, and gas prices, have me rethinking EVERYTHING right now. :?

Again, be easy on me... I know that was a good deal!

I bid it up to $250, but honestly it was going to be a hassle to sort it out, especially since the only machine I want is a HMV 203.

Hope it goes to a good home!

Did you see the loose joint in the back of the case? Shipping without serious care would be asking for trouble.

Garret is right. With poor packing, the purchaser will end up with some firewood and broken cast parts. Doing it right takes a lot of time and care.
