I was thinking the same thing. Taking the bobbin case out of a 201 and replacing it properly is not a joy if you don't know what you're doing. A 15 class machine is so much easier. Besides, the 201-3 isn't a bad price for your area since they aren't all that common, but the 201-2 is way over priced. They're common as dirt up here.
