The dealer and I together, we searched around the shop for feet and such for the machine and we were lucky to find about 10 bobbins, a pack of needles, the knee lift , zigzag presser foot, and a walking foot! Yay!! Although that wasn't everything, it was really great and she gave me everything free of charge
I love my Berninas, I've owned 5 of them through the years, have 2 older ones left.
I'm so glad it all worked out for you! The 730 is a great machine, my dd used hers for 4 years then decided to buy a Bernina 930. She learned to sew with a Bernina and just loves them. You can find a free manual for your machine here:
