She's asking $500 for it. Has all original feet, books, hard case, extension table for it.
I know it's an older machine, but I think Bernina's are pretty good machines.

should I buy or pass???

Are they good for piecing?

opinions please...I need to give her an answer tomorrow before she asks another lady at work.
Thanks
