Pricing Guides for Vintage Sewing Machines

The world of vintage sewing machines is filled with a wonderful variety of models, accessories and cabinets that were released over the decades before plastic and electronics changed the sewing machine business for ever. While this variety is a big part of the attraction it can also make determining the price for a specific machine a real challenge.

When you first start looking for a vintage sewing machine as a seller or a buyer you’ll notice that there are a wide variety of models at a dizzying array of prices. It can all be quite intimidating! That is why I have created the pricing guides for vintage sewing machines.

I have created separate guides for the seller and for the buyer to address the specific needs of each. Both guides include the Price Range Charts to help you determine what price makes sense for a specific machine. The Price Range Charts are useful source for approximate pricing that you can then adjust for your local conditions.
