Hi everyone. I am in such a dither over sewing machines. I really, really love quilting and am researching machines with the 9" throat space. There is a Janome 6500 on CL for $750. It's reduced from $850. The owner says it comes with the extension table, knee lift, memory recall? & "lots" of feet. I've emailed asking her exactly what the feet are, if there is a darning and walking foot and I really don't know what else to ask. What else should I be asking? Am I right in thinking that all the Janome 6500's come with the knee lift and needle down option? Should I ask how old the machine is? The price seems a touch high to me as I thought I'd seen people posting on here about getting used ones for $500 - $600. I'd sure appreciate y'all's opinions.
