Value of Winselmann Treadle Sewing Machine?

An old treadle sewing machine.My wife bought this from her brother and now she doesn't need it anymore. I'm wondering how much it's worth? It has a serial number of 277853 if that helps.

Sadly treadle machine are not in high demand but since yours is truly an antique you may be able to find a buyer - but it 'could' take a long time if the price is very high.

There is not a lot of information available on this brand but you can check out some of the postings on Google if you find something similar. Many links will be old and no longer available but this is how you have to research - hit and miss.
You will find a lot of postings that show WorthPoint as the site but you can only obtain the information shown as you have to be a member to see what anything sold for - membership is expensive as this is a site for appraisers as Worth Point does not actually sell anything; they are just a site that gathers information from all over the world about everything that an appraiser might be researching.

They do have a trial membership available.

Sometimes you can join these sites and someone may be able to help you with information but most of them do not offer 'value' as this is a difficult subject for everyone.

There is a lot of misunderstanding about the WorthPoint site as they do not appraise or buy or sell anything.
WorthPoint is strictly a research site for appraisers, auction houses, and some large sellers of antiques/collectibles.

WorthPoint requires a paid membership and the monthly rates range from $23.99 - $39.99 per month.
Right now they are offering a 7 day free trial but you have to provide payment information to get this free trial and I have read that if you do not cancel with 2 days they will charge your credit card for one month and you cannot get a refund. This is from comments about their site.

This is their comment about their site:

"The leading resource for value information"

The only really good thing about their site is they usually have excellent information (free) about the items on their site.
Free information is all you can obtain from this but you cannot find out sold prices (or if it sold) and dates unless you are a paid member.

The machines are listed from $50 - 275 for sale. On this site, you can search the different models and find the price a person is asking for the machine.

They list the machine by bid or by the price the person is asking for the machine. www.bathantiquesonline.com/.../results-1.html

This site will sell and appraise your
lovely German made sewing machine - It has sold one recently , but you have to sign up to get that price - or you can take your chances on eBay , those range from $50 to $150 sold. I hope you can get what you want for this lovely piece of history -
