Want To Buy: Sailrite LSZ-1 Ultrafeed Sewing Machine

[Bev]

Looking to buy a used and well-maintained Sailrite sewing machine LSZ-1 Ultrafeed with zigzag. ... at a modest price. I've seen one or two advertised at $700-900, but that's too spendy for me. Gee, if I could afford that price I believe I'd be buying a new machine with a warranty!

Bev,

I hate to say this but...

You might just be better off buying new. You get a warranty, and GREAT support. You can spend $1-200 on parts on a "good" used machine, easily. We've gotten a TON of use out of ours over the last 2.5 years - and I'm SO GLAD we bought new.

BTW, also check fleabay, and then call Sailrite. They will match a fleabay price, and will often offer a little discount over the phone.

I probably will buy new, for all the reasons you mentioned. 'Appreciate your thoughts.

i found an older one in ok shape with the monster wheel for $560 on ebay... it can be done. i was looking for 6 months. it needed $23 in parts that the seller agreed to pay for; wouldn't have needed those pars had they packed it properly for shipping.
