Price is justifiable. The Soviet factories only produced 35,000,000 units of this particular design, making it today a very rare and desirable collector's item. This one comes with a free faux bronze Lenin bust, which increases even more its market price.

The price is justifiable with the free shipping. That will pay his tuition at the University.

That is one heck of a buy. Will that delivery be done by Lenin himself with his bronze bust??? Maybe I should get on United right away (unless I get the aisle drag) fly over and get it now. Tom B

Given how long this machine, with it's broken needle tray has been advertised for at a ridiculous price, you'd have thought he'd have got the message by now!
