Though many of the dealers added it into their package when selling it.

Just as in buying many things (not just sewing machines), it's somewhat a "buyer beware" when comparing prices.
One needs to check that they are getting the same inclusions in any deal.
What might seem like a great deal may not be quite so, when you put all in perspective with the exact same inclusions!

Example ... extension table, floor table, feet, other accessories, etc.
