Hey folks, I am posting to let you know I bought a refurbished machine from the big O a year or so ago. I accidently broke my button hole lever, and had to take it in for repair. It's a brother Disney machine and I felt like I got a great bargain on it.

Since we often talk about buying new or used or refurbished and the cost of repairs, I thought I'd let you know how it goes on my repair of my internet-purchased-refurbished machine.

I took it into the local Brother repair shop and should hear something tomorrow from them on the cost. If it's decent, then I will full-fledged say 'TAKE advantage of those internet bargains'. If it's a bust, then I'll say what it's going to cost me! Just thought it might be of interest to the forum. I was in the last stage of finishing an heirloom baby daygown for an expectant neice. All I had left to do was those darned buttonholes!
