Thank you received: 50

I talked to a US friend about this a couple of weeks ago. She was frustrated that wherever she looked for a price for the 830 it said: 'Come and talk to us'. But my friend doesn't give up easily. Apparently the 830 retails at around $12000. She was also told that dealers are making 30% profit on this machine. So there should be quite a lot of room for negotiations.

So, Anna, when are you getting yours??

As far as I know (before anybody asks), this machine is still not available in Europe.

LadyRags OFFLINE Posts: 1571 Thank you received: 43	Without giving any financial secrets what is the price range of the 830? I am curious I thought of buying one but the place was such a zoo... (HUGE SALE going on for fabrics.) I opted not to ... that day. I heard the machine was very expensive but I am just wondering. Thanks
