Is there a "Blue Book" ?
 
I'm looking for some info on the Omni-stitch 1000. Is there a "Blue Book" for determing value? Is there a source for extra parts and attachments?

Do you have a photo? I don't know what an Omni-stitch 1000 is? I am not aware of any blue book. Mostly value is determined by how badly you want it!

Some completed ebay listings:

There is a Facebook group where you might be able to find parts info.

Maybe someone should publish one after doing decades of research. Great idea!

There is a "blue book" for sewing machines. I don't know how extensive it is. When I did a trade in on my Janome (it had some issues after 15 years of being very busy) the dealer pulled out his book for trade in prices. He was strictly a dealer/repair shop.

Thank you, Jon. I did go to ebay and found some info.

There is a book but out of print, I believe. The person who put it has died. I was allowed to hold and peruse said book once but the dealer/repair person wouldn't let me look for more than 2 minutes. Also think they might be rare?????
