Coverstitch Sewing Machine - Pre-Purchase Assessment

$65

Kingsgrove NSW, Australia

12th Apr 2025

Hi Taskers, I am seeking assistance with a pre-purchase assessment of a second hand coverstitch machine. I am new to sewing, so do not know how to use one, or what to look out for to ensure that it is functioning correctly. Thus, I am seeking someone with appropriate experience to “test drive” one for me. I could not find any similar listings to guide me on price, so I have based the price off mobile sewing lessons. Please feel free to quote what you feel is appropriate. Thank you. Shella.
