So Montana...did you buy it from the lady as a private party, or did you buy it from the dealer?? I'm so excited for you, it's fun to get a new toy like that! Will it be your Christmas present? Or will you be able to get some fun accessories to play with it!?

I am so happy for you. Have fun with your new toy.

Congratulations! I never fret about the price of something I buy. If it is what I want at the price I am willing to pay for it then that is all that matters. No matter what I buy someone will say 'you could have gotten a better price at'

i just bought it from her right after the bernina guys cleaned and checked it out! i guess it's going to have to be my christmas present so no extras :( :( . but that's okay, there's enough on that machine to keep me busy for awhile!!

Oh I am so happy for you, I have had a Bernina, I know mine isn't much like yours, its old like I am. But I have loved it ever since I got it. No frills no thrills but no pain. It hasn't missed a lick since I got it in the early 80's. Good luck to you with yours, I am actually envious. I would love a new one, but like so many people, it works so I can't talk myself into buying a new one even if it isn't fancy.

I would check with your LQS again and find out about financing on a BERNINA card. I am not sure what day it was, but there was going to be interest free financing for 48 months with monthly payments. That is how I purchased mine back in October. I know there was an 18 month financing deal going on too. Worth checking out.
