Almost got a Elna TX (Moderated by Sharon1952, EleanorSews)
Posted on: 7/23/12 6:59 PM ET
I found a Elna TX Electronic today, so I called and asked about it. The seller has a repair shop and it has been refurbished mechanically. The flaps are missing though but otherwise cherry.
During the conversation we discussed layaway [since I would have been buying it to teach kids on]. Unfortunately, although the Elna was at the top end of my limited budget, I could not negotiate the layaway terms I needed to close the deal.
The guy was real nice about it but I don't think he understands a real limited budget.
Do you ever run across sewing machine dealers like that, or is it just me?

I'm sorry! That's such a nice machine, and so...close. Maybe something even better will turn up soon!

Unfortunately we can't always get what we want (I'm hearing a Rolling Stones song in my head), but you get what you need!
Hopefully something will turn up that's just as good, maybe even better!!
Hang in there!

You could save up the payment you would have made anyway; if the machine is still available after you have enough cash you could still buy it.
Or have money for an even sweeter deal that may come your way!

You guys are sooooooo right, and I will not give up on the first TX -- if it is still available when I have more funds I will buy it!
But I am on the scent of a Elna that I can afford thanks to a timely pm from NhiHuynh! Thanks honey!
I will let you know if my negotiations work out! If it does, then I will only need one or two more Elna Lotuses/Stellas/TXs!
I want to teach 6 kids at a time!
for EVERYBODY!
