Singer Featherweight 221K White 1964 production date with case & accessories NR

Description

--
Up for bids is this highly desirable white (Celery?)  Singer Featherweight.  This in extremely fine, cosmetic and operational condition. The original case is complete with some scuffing and staining.  In the past, I replaced the drive belt, however the original worn white belt is included for authenticity purposes. Repro, spiral bound manual is included as well as many accessories set out below and visible in first and last photos.
--As visible in photos, this is in original condition with peeling QC tag still present.  There is a tiny ding on the bed extension where it contacts the thread guide barely visible in photo no. 3.
--Ser No. EV980233 places this around 1964.
Accessories included:
Simanco 120842--5/64 foot hemmer
Simanco 121441--Gathering Foot
Simanco 86742--Ruffler
Simanco 35931--Adjustable Hemmer
Simanco 121464--Binder Foot
Simanco 36865--Edge Stitcher
Simanco 120855--5/64 foot hemmer (black)
Simanco 45321--Straight Stitch Foot
Simanco 25527--Seam Guide
Alphasew 1/4" Quilting Foot with guide
--This had been sitting for awhile, so I oiled it up with Tri-Flow and it sews fine as can be seen in photos 4 and 5 showing top and bottom of stitching.
--From an environmentally controlled,  smoke and pet free home.  I have owned this since 2011 and have only sewn with it four times, excluding testing.
--Since no one else offers returns on these, I will follow suit.  No returns unless I don't send you the item pictured.
--I will ship this in accordance with the multiple treatises on the subject.  I am no stranger to this type of shipping for vintage electronics.  This machine is over 55 years old and is really more of a collectible, however quilters prize them for their size and straight stitch.  Accordingly, when you get this, you will have to install the light bulb, reassemble the spool pin cover, bobbin winder (remove the captive nut I installed), as well as probably make minor adjustments.  Please consider not bidding if you are not comfortable with this or any of the hands on aspects of owning a vintage machine.
--All the experts say the case for these white 221's is too fragile to handle a properly packed machine, so I will ship it separately.   Both boxes will be shipped by UPS ground and the shipping will be calculated based on the total weight and dimensions for both.  All you pay is the eBay shipping calculator amount to your address.  No packing or handling charges.  If there is a shortfall in estimated shipping costs, I will absorb it, if there is a surplus, I will promptly refund it.
--I am now offering carrier specific shipping discounts to reflect actual shipping costs I pay and no more.  This should work out to your advantage and further reduce the impact of shipping charges.
--ABSOLUTELY NO FOREIGN SHIPPING!! CONUS ADDRESSES ONLY!
--LOW $.99 STARTING BID AND NO RESERVE ON THIS!!!!!!!!
