I bought my D1 from EBay and a great experience. I did lots of checking both by reading all their feedbacks and emailing them. Not only did I get it in perfect shape, they included everything they had bought to go w/machine; all the stabilizers, needles, designs. Then the seller incl. instr. sheets for me on how to use everything. I was so blessed. I'm still using my D1 after 8 years. My advice is to go with your gut and talk to them before buying. I'm very glad I did. I buy other stuff with good results. I like the feedback and paypal features ebay offers.
