Oh, now that I'm thinking about it; the seller wrote in her add that it was a 1995 sewing machine. She must have got this information somewhere: a bill found in a drawer? This could mean the machine was serviced... My 831 had this kind of bill (a 300$ for "motor reconditionning" in 1991) It was running perfectly, I didn't put a minute of work on this one.
I already have a Viking free arm style cabinet (I put my Bernina in it). Nicest cabinet I ever saw. Don't have the room for another one, unfortunatly.
