Sorry you are having problems with your machine. Do you have a stand by machine? That does sound like a lot of money to replace a spring, but maybe it is a time consuming thing to do. If there is another sewing machine shop in your area, you might try getting a second estimate. I hope you can find a solution, it isn't fun when a machine you use a lot and have a great relationship with is sick.
