Default ellisimo

My older sister has chronic and serious illnesses that have affected her ability to concentrate, see, and use fine motor skills. I would like to offer her a fair value for her Ellisimo which she purchased approximately 5 years ago. It has been serviced at a local Babylock dealer, has no computer upgrades, has all attachments and accessories and has been well taken care of and sews like a dream. I do not know what she paid originally, but based on this information, can anyone recommend a fair purchase price. Thank you very much.

I think the local Babylock dealer who serviced it would be a good place to start asking.

It is difficult to come up with a price because it depends on what the buyer is willing to pay. I would ask the person who services the machine what a fair price would be.

I lost my motor skill and ability to concentrate after going thru menopause. My eyes are not as sharp as they once were. I was finally diagnosed with Chronic Fatigue Syndrome. I actually gave up quilting for over a year. I can't drive any more so I have to rely on friends. But I discovered if I stick with patterns where the seams don't necessarily have to line up, I started quilting again. It gives me such satisfaction with what I am able to make and helps me fight the depression. PM me if you wish to talk further.

I gave 4500.00 for mine it was 2 year old. The lady had lost her job and needed to pay off her loan. I sure have enjoyed my machine.
