Since this show is fairly close by, definitely check the vendors--many will be local to the show. I bought my Elna Quilt Queen Pro in 2011 at a show and paid $500 less than the store price. I did end up picking it up at the store so they could show me all the features again. But often, vendors will want to NOT have to load up machines so will let you take on the last day. The class machines are usually even a bigger discount cause they are now considered "used" instead of demos. good luck!
