People happily $9 for a half gallon of milk. There is one industrial machine supplier that I have been able to find, in Manhattan. He is charging $1350 + tax for a Juki 563. Can anyone comment on the actual machines? SewCool, I get it! Sounds like you want and need a machine soon. I'll admit, I have paid more for (1) machine that I purchased. I was unable to find the exact model I was looking for locally and I searched for years. There were a few that popped up, but I missed out on a couple really great deals because somebody else pulled the trigger faster than I did. So when one finally came up and I was ready to run and pick it up, I paid double the price I was planning on paying for it. It didn't come with a table or a motor, but I had those parts already, so not a big deal. I got a machine sold to me by a retired Industrial machine mechanic and it looked to be in fantastic condition. I was able to run it before testing and Seller guaranteed it. So that was worth it to me! I think you are smart to consider purchasing a Juki as you mentioned above. In the past 15 years I've bought more Juki machines than any other name. So I guess I'd have to say that overall, Juki is my favorite! I currently own six Juki machines. If you have the time to just wait and watch, I agree with others that the right machine is going to come your way. Good luck!!! Quote
