Re: when buying a used machine
Find out if it has ever been repaired and why. Find out the hour and/or stitch count. As mechanical machines they will at some point where parts out and need repair, refurbishing or replacement.
Re: when buying a used machine
I just bought a 2005 Melco Amaya XT from Equipused. It was a great experience. They approved my lease, crated and shipped. It arrived in great shape and I had it up and running within a day. Do your research about the machine you are interested in. The salesperson new next to nothing about the actuall machine, sewing field, capabilities etc.
