Bernina 217 on Ebay

[skydived19006 4]

I'm not "advertising", I have no interest in this machine. I asked the riggers I know, and they don't need this machine, so just passing the information along. Hell, anyone here who want's a 217 probably has a saved ebay search (that's how I found it), and already knows anyway.

BERNINA 217 Industrial Zig-Zag Sewing Machine w/Table

Item number: 160312722496

It has "the box" and cams!

This was from an email I sent around to my rigger friends:
The seller says "I will be unable to ship this item, but am willing to be helpful and flexible for local pick-up or available for your shipper to pick up." I used Unishippers to broker shipping on my engine/prop cores, and they beat the best Texas Skyways could do be well over $100. Unishippers is a nation wide chain, I think the local guys are franchises. Anyway, I'm 99% certain that Unishippers would pick this machine up at the person's house, package it on a pallot, and get it on it's way. Just something to keep in mind when looking at stuff like this.

Experience is what you get when you thought you were going to get something else.

Pretty tight deal if you can get it for $800 and then ship it freight or via "a dude on his way from Mexico" like Mark did.

Hell you should buy it--a couple of thousand checkbook covers and it's paid for.

It's called the Hillbilly Hop N Pop dude.

It went for $765, had "the box" and a bunch of cams. I'm not a rigger, had I known it would go so low I'd have bought the damn thing! Even if it was a piece, as I understand, the goodies are worth more than the closing.
