Cool new machine . Y

So I walked into the Husq/Viking shop in JoAnn's this morning to see about getting my Sapphire 830 serviced. Started talking to the sales lady about the quilt she was working on and machine quilting on my Sapphire 830, she gave me some good insights about the issues I am having. Let me backup a little here I have been wanting to upgrade my machine - I have the Sapphire 830, a Brother XR1855, and a Viking Class 600E embroidery/sewing machine(which they don't make anymore but I don't do much embroidery anymore mainly personalized quilt labels ). So anyway I walked around to the where the Sapphire 965Q was sitting - I had looked at it right before the new year and they were marked down from $2777 to $1600 (give or take a few $s) and saw it waw still marked down. I just couldn't pay $1600 (newly retired June 1). Was about to walk away when I looked again Low and behold it was marked down to $999! yes it is the last one and the floor model but it wasn't being used - we had to look around for the electrical plug. So now my delimma is I have to sell my other Sapphire 830. So how much do I ask I still have everything that came with it and still have the box and it has low hours cause before I retire I didn't do much sewing. Any suggestion would be appreciated. Also I have sold on ebay before but nothing this big should I try there or go to one of the sewing machine for sale sites on facebook? Thanks in advance for your suggestions. Now let me go pull my new machine out of the box and get this quilt I'm working on finished
