Ok...I'm in.

<span style="font-size: medium;">I'm contacting the seller.  Wish me luck. If I get it this will be my very first truly vintage machine. </span>

Something could be up Louie........

but then again maybe the seller could not sell the machine at what ever price he was asking on Craigslist so now he is selling it real cheap on Ebay because he has to get rid of it....good luck I hope this turns out in your favor....PAT

Correction to the title of this thread--it's a 1950s, Blackstone model 250. Funny, it is the same picture from the previous thread. I wonder if the eBay picture is actually of the machine for sale. The seller should post more pictures.

If you get hat washer Lou, you are gonna need a place to store it ;-). I would love that washer lol.

I emailed the seller

<span style="font-size: medium;">No new pictures yet. Thanks for the offer Brian, but I already have a nice spot for it in the hall closet.</span>

Didn't Graham get this washer back in January?

 

[in2itdood]

yes...

Pretty sure this is a picture of the machine that was on a thread here back in Jan. I think a nice Guy In Pa bought that machine. Looks like there is already a bid on the current ebay machine.

 

[sharples]

Yup

Yup i got the one that was posted on Craigslist this past winter. She is a beauty and whoever gets this one will love it!!!

 

[Ultramatic]

So...

<span style="font-size: medium;">this person is using someone else's picture of the 250?</span>

What happened?

Auction was cancelled??

 

[Ultramatic]

Maybe somebody swooped in and bought it outright..

<span style="font-size: medium;">I always thought this auction was "off". </span>

 

[brianl]

Oh well...

I guess you will not be able to purchase it and then bring it to my basement ;-)

Seriously though, that's not good. I was looking forward to seeing it.

Heavens to Murgatroid!!

That's only an hour from me! Wonder what happened.

 

[Ultramatic]

I still think somebody swooped in and bought it...

<span style="font-size: medium;">Oh well...back to watching...</span>
