The 201K I won on eBay arrived today.
In pieces.
The carrier had clearly been careless, and despite the ample bubble wrap, severe damage was done.
Broken bobbin winder – I could live with that, and wind bobbins on a different machine.
Broken belt protector – annoying, but not too major.
Bent thread spindle – again, annoying, but I can straighten it.
Broken thread take-up lever – without that, the machine won't sew.
I did receive a full refund, though initially the seller only offers a £10 partial refund. Still, I'm very disappointed. IS there any easy way to replace a broken take-up lever?
