Description

This was my late wife's but hasn't been used for about 20 years. Was purchased new in the 70s and went well when it was being used but other than that, can't help much with this.

If you know about these then you will know what these machines do

  • Hi. Thanks for the question. It is a Singer Memomatic and I think that it is a model 321 but will confirm this in the next day or so. Trade Me Seller Comment 7:48 am, Sun, 22 Jun
  • Hi there, happy to offer $50. Just need to confirm time off work and will drive from Taranaki to Gisbourne to pick up Sat 5 July approximately after lunch. Would that work for you? Trade Me User 9:39 pm, Sat, 28 Jun perfect! The auction should have the option of making an offer which I would accept as soon as made. If the auction expires first I will relist with a buy now option Trade Me Seller • 9:48 pm, Sat, 28 Jun
  • hi is there any rust on the machine. thanks Trade Me User 10:40 pm, Fri, 27 Jun None that I can see Trade Me Seller • 11:18 pm, Fri, 27 Jun
  • Well, I wouldn't have the first clue how to sort out a courier from my end, but I'm happy to pay for it if you sort it out. Please let me know if you're willing to do so. Trade Me User 8:59 pm, Mon, 23 Jun Hi. I've looked a ta few places and it seems that the closest that we can get to at your end is Cromwell or Dunedin. Shall I try to get prices?

  • Tried to add a buy now but the app doesn't allow sorry. If I need to relist after closing this afternoon will add then Trade Me Seller Comment 10:43 pm, Sat, 28 Jun
  • Have freighted several machines. Highly recommend the following: Strap to a half pallet and wrap with industrial 'gladwrap'; Fragile stickers; use Mainfreight or the like. Butt covering: Send purchaser photos for approval of packaging method before shipping off. Trade Me User 2:10 am, Wed, 25 Jun Thanks for that advice. Very Helpful. Sounds like it would be quite expensive from Gisborne to the South Island and Mainfreight would only go to the nearest main centre. Trade Me Seller • 3:53 am, Wed, 25 Jun
  • I'm in Palmerston Otago. would you be willing to ship it here at my expense? Happy to offer $50 plus the shipping cost if yes. Trade Me User 6:09 am, Mon, 23 Jun Sure. You would need to arrange a freight company to pick up and cover the cost of packaging as well as freight. This is bigger than what the regular couriers through Trade Me can manage Trade Me Seller • 6:17 am, Mon, 23 Jun
  • I've been able to get an estimate from NZ Couriers based on packaging it to a size of 150cm x 50cm x 30cm. This makes is 0.225cubic metres. Based on their website it can be delivered to an agent ion Palmerston but inter island tickets cost $38 per .025 cubic metres which means 10 tickets ($380) plus I estimate $20 for packaging for both the machine and ribber. You would need to allow $400, possibly more if both parts and the stand turn out to be bigger when packaged. Trade Me Seller Comment 11:18 pm, Mon, 23 Jun
  • I'm not entirely sure how to do all that. How would I know how much packing costs? Are you quite sure the Trade Me courier service can't take this? Trade Me User 6:26 am, Mon, 23 Jun I've tried putting the dimensions into the TradeMe calculator but it says that the box is too big. We would need to find an alternative carrier like Mainfreight unfortunately. Trade Me Seller • 7:18 am, Mon, 23 Jun
  • I can confirm that it is a 321 Trade Me Seller Comment 9:31 pm, Sun, 22 Jun
  • Sorry for the delay in replying. I think that's a bit too much for the shipping. I appreciate you looking into it, and if I can't find anything closer that fits my needs I'll request a repost on the listing. Thank you anyway. Trade Me User 11:42 pm, Wed, 25 Jun Thanks for that. Happy to work with you to find a better option but unfortunately it seems difficult to send something this big between islands, particularly when the destination is not near a transport hub.
