My Serger Has A TWIN!!!

I guess I’m not scared anymore! Last week, while we were junkin’, I saw this Brother 1034D serger at the Salvation Army ‘AS IS’ store. No guarantees, no refunds, no exchanges. You buy it, it’s yours.

I wasn’t sure I wanted it, but I have been thinking about it all week. I told Louie that I would look today, and if it was there, and I knew it worked, I would get it.

It was missing the book, and the bag of accessories/feet. Everything else was there, except for two spool caps for the small spools of thread. The two needles were not original, and they were inserted incorrectly.

I got it to work though! Woo hoo! I’m not scared anymore!!!

This delapidated box is what it came in. This side actually looks GOOD. The other sides are all taped up and in horrible shape. There is a lady’s name written on one side in marker, and there was an invoice from Walmart.com where it was originally bought.  The store worker removed it when we were checking to see if everything moved smoothly. My guess is that this person whose name is on the box bought it from Walmart.com, broke two needles, got frustrated, and returned it to a local store. Since the box was in horrible shape, with her name on it, and since the accessories and book were missing, Walmart could not return it to Brother, so they donated it to the Salvation Army and wrote it off as a loss.

It seems ironic that I would find a ‘new’ serger of the same make and model as my new one, and right after I bought mine. I’m happy I found it, but I’m giddy, that I figured it out and got it working!!! Score one for me!

I’m in a junkin’ mood. I think I’ll go again tomorrow!

Be blessed!
