Really???
As much as i want one of these, $250 is well, insane. $75-100 tops. I have one of these in rusted and decrepit condition already. They are rare though, but fun. <sigh>
I sent the seller an e-mail to see if we could negotiate something. As some of you know, I've been chasing one of these for a while now, with a failed run all the way to Wisconsin. I'll keep you all posted.

These machines have no heater, no 110v models do. They are based on the Servis SuperTwin and the knobs are (L to R): Wash Pump (On/Off), Wash Timer, Spin (On/Off). The wash pump is a mechanical pump driven off the wash motor. The knob simply moves a lever and engages the pump wheel. The timer is just a mechanical 15 minute timer that turns the machine off at the end of the set time. There is no timer motor, its wind up and has a cute bell. The spin dial is the power to the spinner and electric pump for the spinner. With this on, the pump starts running immediately and the spinner with run if the lid is closed. It's an odd way to operate the spinner. The later models have only 2 dials, omitting the spin dial.
