Crown Jewel with the Pearl Frame/ along with the Quilt Motion
 
I have an opportunity to purchase the Crown Jewel with the Pearl frame along with the Quilt Motion for the price of $9,000.00 for the Crown Jewel with the Pearl Frame and a price of $3600.00 for the Quilt Motion which brings it to the total of $12,600.00 for the two. I am wondering if this is a good deal. I have never did a full quilt on one of these machines so would appreciate the input from the ones that do have the experience with this. Thanks very much.

$3600 is a good price for Quilt Motion. Don't know prices for Crown Jewel with a Pearl Frame. Contact a dealer and see if they will quote a price. Or try to find prices online.

What size throat does the Crown Jewel have, assuming that is the machine you will use for quilting?
Being a Bailey owner and knowing they make, 13" 15" and 17" - for a whole lot less $$$, my comment would be
unless you are getting a L-o-n-g arm....26" or so, you are spending a lot of money and not getting a good amount of quilting space. . I would never be satisfied with a 9" arm for quilting. It is just too limiting, especially after the quilt is rolled on the take-up bar. If you have that kind of money to spend, go for something bigger...so you won't be wanting to Up-grade later.

I just got a quote on an APQS Lucie, 26" for $10,500. New incl. shipping and classes. It is rated at the top. Fabulous stitch regulator on it.

I paid $8500 for my Jewel (not Crown) and frame from a dealer. It was the floor model and had only been used to quilt 1 quilt and taken to 2 shows...

You can get a new Gammill and table for around the same price!

The crown jewel alone without the frame is 8000 new, how much does the frame run, is it used new, really don't know much else except for the machine because i want one eventually

Where I live the Crown Jewel with the Pearl frame is $8,000.00. Quilt motion is about the same price. Good Luck.

I have a Crown Jewel with a Grace Majestic frame that was 10,000 new last April. It also included the channel locks, leaders, microhandles and the 4 day class in St. Louis with Kay Caps Cross.
