What an awesome great deal! I just picked up a Bernette Deco 650 today from my Bernie dealer for $200. It had all the things that originally came with it, but no cards, just the built in stitches. I intend to have a lot of fun learning to use it though!

I've been watching for a fantastic deal on CL..haven't found it yet but keeping fingers crossed

What a great find - I take it you are saying you found on craigslist? Wish I could find something like that - I am envious lol cheryl :-)

I've had a Bernina Deco 500 since they first came out. I love it. Yes, it is now vintage with all the new machines and gadgets on the market. I also have the magic black box where i can take designs from five other machines and copy on my blank card. I have most of the cards that were made for the 500 and 600. More than I'll ever use. We old "vintages" have to stick together.

I'm looking to upgrade from my Brother 270D but can't make a decision.
Do I keep it, spend $ on a reader/writer for the cards (they are sooo expensive) or spend $ for machine that will download from internet?!!!

if you can go the USB connection way.

d.rickman 06-17-2011 07:45 AM

Now I'm really green with envy after looking at your pictures,and of all the goodies you received with your machine, and for the great price. I'm wondering if mine was such a good deal now.......
I Pm's you as well....

Happy quilting - happy embroidery.....

pugmom 06-17-2011 07:56 AM

WOW!!! What an awesome find.

barbt 06-17-2011 08:02 AM

That is a great buy. I bought it new and paid $ 1200.00 and had to buy all the cards. I have a magic box and updated it. If you only want to embroider an area 4 x 4 it is really handy.
