Hi,

        I have a chance to buy one that has been
collecting dust for 20 years. No accessories but
for the foot-pedal and instruction manual.

        In your opinion: is it any good, and what's it
worth???

        Many thanks!

        FWIW, Ron answered me by email. It's nothing
special, just a fair machine.

Just adding my 2c worth, but a Kenmore just doesn't hold it's re-sale value.
You can check on e-bay for a value and shipping costs.

        I went to Ebay before posting; there were no
completed sales of this machine.

        I did send pics of it to Ron, who advised me of
its marginal value, so I'm going to pass on it.

Just because it doesn't hold a resale value doesn't mean that it
wouldn't be a good-quality machine to use.

The little Kenmore I bought for $115 in 1979 when I came back from Guam
and gave to my daughter a number of years ago is still going strong and
is a little work horse.
