tried his reply was send it to me

Don't you just love dealing with somebody that doesn't know how to bend.....

OK another idea....reaching far here, how about a appliance refinisher or a super custom auto body shop, like for the real vintage cars, or motorcycles....you need a craftsperson....an old dude.....

Have sent more then 10 email to people who sell or repair them. Hope one of them get back to me

Have you sent a PM to Billy (Lostn51)? He's our resident machine guru!

yes thanks PM Him

out of curiousities was the machine packed correctly....was there packing between the machine and case....between the case and box....do you have a recourse also again the seller.....so many people think they can just throw this into a box that fits and its ok.....

Yes have been in connect with the seller-She did it right took it to a authorized shipper it was package well and the shipping company has agreed that it is a claim.. I just need to have a price of the decreased valve of the machine because the shipping damage or the price to have it repainted not sure I would have it repainted because it decreases the valve if it is repainted. At this point my head hurts---understand?

Oh I so understand.....

thanks I would rather be sewing.

have you tried sewing on the machine yet....was anything else damaged ????
