I bought my Little Gracie II frame & Juki from Craig's List for $1100. That's been almost 3 years ago. It came with a speed control (which is not a stitch regulator), pattern perfect templates, and had the leader cloths. She also threw in some needles, lots of bobbins and QuiltCad software. I did recently replace the plastic tracks because I had a problem with cracking. I like the steel rods. I've quilted a small quilt & a couple bed runners with them and so far...so good. I would love to have a bigger throat space machine and one day when I can afford to I would like to upgrade. But, I'll keep my Juki TL 98Q for piecing. It has been a work horse! I've quilted a lot quilts with this set up. I've seen them go from 1000 to 2500 depending on what is included. I wish I had a stitch regulator, but they seem pretty expensive.
