From Sew Vac Direct, ask for Steve, And ask him to help with the price. He helped me alot, and he is a wonderful guy to deal with. I don't have a dealer close enough for me, so this worked well. I got the Janome 1600p (not the DB/DBX I heard they have round shank needle that can cause threading issues.) I also got the Gracie Sturdy Lite and then Upgraded to the new carriage which I know they sell too. I hope when I move to find a dealer for the support and maint.
