I got mine at a flea market years ago when they first came out. Think I paid $55 for it. Also got the smaller ones. i did my first hand quilting on it and loved it for its size and convenience. I now have a full frame for my sewing machine and don't do hand quilting anymore. Too slow for me and arthritis is creeping in. So many quilters have gone to machine work that I can't sell mine at any price.
