Oh that’s a shame but it doesn’t surprise me, I have heard that delivery is still very difficult for a lot of things.

I do but my spare sewing machine i had finally gave up the ghost, i used this to carry out all the repairs on DH’s work clothes so DH suggested i treat myself to a new one and keep the Janome for his work clothes…….i don’t need telling twice when he suggests things like this  :laughing:

Pre order is extremely common right now the world over. Local big sewing machine store orders machines in, offers them for sale and most are sold prior to their arrival. Usually only 2 or 3 left from a batch of 20 or so.. Been that way for years here. Because they are so high volume and buy in bigger lots at a time they get a nice discount and entice sales with very good prices.

Brother makes wonderful machines.
Hey Bill! Read the manual!  Hehehe.

I made a decision this morning to cancel this order, it’s been playing on my mind for the last week. Although I have the funds it’s just bugging me that I have a perfectly good working Janome that cost me £700 so it wasn’t cheap and it does everything I need it to, I just feel far too guilty, if my current machine was not working/broke then maybe I would feel different……I’ll save this treat for a later date when it’s needed.
