Yes, you can machine needles in bulk on Amazon. I tried both the Schmetz and the Organs and have not really found much difference in my machines. Plus, I used my Chase Reward points that have built up, so it was like shopping for free!

Thanks ... I'll be watching for them, as I just bought a bunch and there was only the single coding.
Perhaps the new style has not arrived in Canada yet.

However .... the challenge will be as to whether we can truly see the colours.
With so many different markings, it may be hard to distinguish the difference, then we are no further ahead!
