That makes the Bernina Dealer I phoned here in Indianapolis sound pretty good. I asked for a "well-baby" check up; basic cleaning and oiling = 79.95 before any extras. Back in Roanoke, VA it is about that; my problem was I did not want to be without it for 2 weeks. So your price does seem riduculous. Mine is a computerized and 16 years old. But good.( A Bernina 1530)
