way more than we do, and some of his message is here- please read it carefully as
it tells you pretty much everything about this unit.

Being a Singer person who lived in Germany for five years, this info is to just try to help you sell this marvelous sewing machine.
This Singer 422G is a VERY RARE Singer, so your Description should appeal to the Singer COLLECTORS.
These four Singers were never sold in the USA - all which are here were imported, most likely by US Military personnel rotating home from Germany in the 19602.
It is important to mention this machine is 110 volt rather than the 220v it was originally manufactured with.
FROM ANOTHER SOURCE:
The 402g, 412g, 422g, and 432g are pretty much all the same machines. Save this email as it should contain quite a bit of information about these wonderful machines.
These 4 models of Singers were only made in Germany in the early 1960's and only for about 12 to 18 months,
hence just HOW RARE THEY ARE !
They were made by Singer 2 fill in a gap to have a model for every budget. It just didn't work out for Singer, hence the short production run. They only sew a straight stitch and zig-zag a stitch, nothing else. They will do a twin needle stitch. The levers and knobs on the front of the machines r for stitch control, either for zig-zag width or where it needle will be set, either center, left, or right. You unscrew them just a bit then set them where you want them, then tighten them up again and that will hold them in place.
I have often wondered why these machines were ever made by Singer with so little differences between them. The 422g and the 432g have the removable bed extension like the 421g and the 431g has. The only difference between them is the 412g and the 432g does the chain stitching, These machines were built to last many life times over. I think Singer just bit off more than they could chew with these 4 models.
These 4 models have gone down in Singer history as the most short-lived and RARE models Singer ever made. 2 me, they are just fantastic machines, but again, they only do 2 or 3 functions.
If your 422G plugs into the wall outlet AND when you turn on the switch (Under the Lamp I believe)
the light comes on, and you press the Foot Pedal the machine turns, IT'S ALREADY BEEN CONVERTED.
Mostly, the worst problem these 1960s Singers have is they require a good oiling, and require grease on the gears inside.
If they had ANY problems, about 95% of those were only wanting to have all the moving parts oiled.
RESEARCH the Singer 422G on worthpoint.
ALSO, your Selling Price is quite fair - maybe even a little low, considering how rare these machines are."
