    Default Bernina BSR

    In January we are having a "garage sale" at our quilt meeting in the morning and the evening meetings. For $10 you can rent a table. I purchased a BSR attachment when I bought my Bernina and have never used it. We have to price everything we are selling. What do you think would be a logical price to put on this. I know how I want to price the featherweights and Viking Mega Quilter we will be offering but this thing has me stumped.

    I would price it at half the price you paid for it and writing the retail price as well as the sale price on the tag.

    Did you check e bay to see what the BSR was going for? I know that is what dealers do when they are pricing used machines.

    I have a Bernina and the BSR. I paid several hundred dollars for it. If you have never used it, I would not sell it for half price.

    I think the retail on the BSR is $1000. Selling on eBay will probably get the best price, but your guild meeting might be the best local market- ladies who own Berninas are aware of the value of the BSR.

    This was my thought as well.
