Try E-Bay. My friend had her Janome die on her over the holidays. Sewed the poor old 20 year old thing to death. She was budget poor, so tried E-Bay. She got a wonderful, like new 230 Bernina Patchwork only about 6 years old for $750.00 with lots of extra accessories and 30 bobbins. When she was looking brand new a model with much less stitch and accessories was over double the cost. She has been using it since Christmas Eve and says it is a wonderful machine and like new. Worth a try.
