    I'd take it to a Bernina dealer, if you have one close, and get it serviced. I took a 930 that I picked up to one, and it only cost $150 or so. Well worth it for a machine of that caliber.

    I've seen machines that do both sewing and serging, but I doubt if that one does.

    There is usually 1 or 2 or more going on a week around here.

    If you search for "sewing" on Craigslist, you will likely get a few results that are from estate and garage sales.
