I agree with the others..for sure under $100 though it is probably going to be a good machine assuming its been well-cared for. It's easily at least 10-12 years old. There's a current model janome (4030?) that looks much the same which means service and parts would not be a problem. Its was/is a decent low end model but rates a top drop-in bobbin...so approaching middle line even for that long ago. I actually think used from a dealer with a bit of warranty, it might be $100 but from private party, possibly less. So far, we're all in the right ball-park.
