I didn't working with Eddie at all. I had the son, Drew, help me look at a few machines, and then the wife, Dawn, help me with the sale a few days later. She even sat down with me and showed me how to wind a bobbin and thread my machine.
Also it's good to know that they are open to negotiation. I paid $399 for mine but I had them include a Janome walking foot and 1/4" foot.
Also I just got this email. 25% off Machines!:
