Yes-my LQS was a Viking dealer and is now selling only Janome. They will keep doing maintenance checks on Vikings but I'm unable to get any accessories for my machine there. Very upsetting-I bought a Viking because of the location (15 min away). Each time I've stopped in LQS she advises I "trade up to a Janome before she stops taking Vikings on trade". Cannot afford to do that. Two Joann stores in the area (45min away) do sell Vikings still so I guess that's where I'll go for bobbins, etc. Unless those franchises are also closed--hope not.
