Sash, I also had a table that I had purchased the year prior to the trade-in. My 6600 was 4yrs old and used a lot, along with the special table, I was allowed $1600 against the MSRP or $3000. Then I splurged and bought a Roberts sewing table. The combination of the two - the 7700 and the table - have made me a very happy camper (quilter) that is. LOL
