Oh my gosh! I bought my machine on ebay, 2 year old Elegante 2 for a fabulous price, got to know the seller and have been amazingly please with the machine. I called local dealer and asked if I could purchase classes and he refused because I did not buy the machine from him and was quite arrogant! I called a LQS that had previously sold these machine and she gave me an unlimted lesson for $20! The worst thing got the dealer is that he has lost about 10 potential customer (I was so appalled that I mention it to every quilter that I meet!)
