In my opinion... $1000 is not a terrible price but it is at the high end of the price range for that machine. $700-800 is where I would want to be for that machine. But I am always looking for really good deals.

All my servos have a knob to adjust the speed.  They are variable speed and easy to control.  A test drive would tell it all.  

Cool. That's why I suggested checking :rolleyes:
When I was looking at a new Consew 226 at a local dealer, it had the servo with the knob. I saw several like that, but this one was the main one I remember was on or off and not variable.

I appreciate everyone’s input! It really helped out a bunch. I think I’m going to make a reasonable offer on the machine and see if I can’t get it in the shop this weekend. I’m sure I’ll be back with more questions, thanks again.

I have to agree. That machine is worth $1000 in great condition used, but its on the high side of the market. I bought mine for 450$ in heavily used condition, and I considered that a real bargain. 

A consew 1206 is 1095$ new

I just bought a one owner 206rb (SInger 531B) for $500 in great shape.  I paid a couple hundred to switch to a servo motor, and speed reducer, and swing down roller guide.  The machine will sew through 13oz of leather (I build bridles and horse tack) with no problem.
