Where is the best place to buy Viking and FW bobbins? The lowest price.

Try ebay, there is a huge seller on there, can't remember his name and you can get some good deals from him.

Here's the link to sew-classic.com for the featherweight bobbins. They have great prices and great customer service.

I don't know where to get Viking bobbins.

Low price doesn't mean squat if they're not useable. Many of the repro. bobbins aren't good, like many of the ones at Joannes/Walmart. I've bought bobbins brought them home and the center hole is too small... buy from Sew Classic for your vintage machines. I will only buy my bobbins from them now. It's not worth the savings if they don't work!

Yes Sew Classic is the place to go. That's where I go and I have never been disappointed with anything I have bought from them.

I bought my Viking ones from my LQS that sold me it. These bobbins are different than most and I don't want any problems with them to make me frustrated.

I buy my Viking bobbins from ebay and they are original Husqvarna so there's never been a problem with them. I would never buy any imitation parts for my machine. I got 20 for less than $15 so that's a really good deal. I have two Vikings and the things for the #1 Plus are getting harder to find.
