I bought my Janome 8900 off Craigslist. The lady who had it listed had all her original paper work, box, and sold it because it had to many bells and whistles. She was more of a vintage straight stitch gal she told me. This was her first computerized machine and it was to much for her electronically. Her original PW that was in the manual book and it showed me the machine was just two years old and she paid over $4000 for it, I paid $1500 for it. Great machine, I've had it almost 3 years and just love it. Highly recommend it, only draw back for me, it has a carry handle, but holy cow, it has yet to leave my studio due to how heavy it is.
Vanna, there are great deals to be had out there. You can save a lot of money and find great deals for any budget in a variety of machine styles for a larger harp size, just keep your eyes open. Good luck searching.
