badly listed and mysterious Featherweight in Rotheram ebay auction

It's not listed as a Featherweight just 'Vintage Singer sewing machine'. I like that leather cable holder too. :)

Well they obviously know it's a Featherweight, but don't know why they should have listed it as one.
Looks a clean machine too.

Featherweights generally sell for more than a similar vintage/condition full size machine so I would have thought it was in the interest of the seller to describe it as such.
