Description:
I had a really nice Quiet Riter a while back which I sold to make room when I acquired a Remington All-New. I had decided the machines were similar enough to let the Quiet Riter go.
I regretted that. And since I have added this machine to my collection. I bought it locally, and it was purchased new by the father of the man I bought it from and used as a business machine for Stanley R Cupp INC paving company in Christiansburg, Virginia. I bought it for $40 and appreciate having some history along with the machine.
Sold and will be a Christmas gift for someone. Replaced with another less attractive but better feeling Quiet Riter.
