It is not working. Sounds like it is working but nothing moves inside. |

Just got my serger back from being serviced(cleaned, oiled, and adjusted) and it was $65.00.
|
Well since I am here I am going to guess at least 135.00. Not really sure as my Berninia doesn't have an automatic thread cutter and never had to have it fixed. But to have my machine serviced here it is at least 69.00 or maybe more now. Hope it really isn't that much though. Jennifer

guessing here at 58.00............hmmmm

Just have a bad feeling $130. Because of the compyers in them.
|
I would guess $93 for parts and labor.
$40 if he finds only lint. I hope that it is nothing if he finds lint, becuase he wants you as a future customer. We can only hope. Best wishes. PS I bought a Janome 3160 with thread cutter for class and back up in case my 6600 gets sick. Diana |
My guess is $38.28
|
Do we get a prize for the correct cost or repair? LOL I have no clue what it would cost.

It is not working. Sounds like it is working but nothing moves inside. My machine, a Janome 6500 has never had a problem until now. I am really missing it! My hubby took it with him went he went for meetings in the city. It has been gone for 3 hours. I'm going to guess $112 will get her home and into your sewing room. froggyintexas |
probley 65.00 for service call and 5.00 to 10.00 for the blade so at least 75.00 total
|
Depending on the brand of machine anywher between $35.00 and $60.00 dollars. There is usually a 10 to 20% markup, depending on the shop.

I guess 100.00
|
I think you pay a higher price in Canada for everything but I have a Janome 6500 as well and I have had to have it in the shop a couple of times and it is still causing problems. One shop was to call me back after they got in touch with the factory. Never heard a word. I didn't have to pay on that one. Another guy looked at it and cleaned it up-lots of lint and thread in the mechanism. The problem was that after you took your foot off the foot pedal it woul continue to run. Well it is doing it again and I'm not sure what I'm going to do. I do have a Jem Gold back up so I am not totally without a machine.
|
My guess is $95. No matter what machine or what's wrong with it, my repair guy starts out at $95. From my FW to my computerized machine it always starts out at $95 and goes up from there.
|
I just Got mine back, for a clean and check it was 129.95. So my guess would be $99.95.
|
I'm going to say 128.50. hope it is cheaper for you though.
|
I think it will be $75.00 because they won't stop there.
|
What is yhis a new game"The Quilters Price Is Right? HeHE
|
I had that problem with mine and found out I put the wrong brand of needle in the machine, that was an easy fix
|
Our local shop charges $79.95 just to look at a machine.
|
Just picked my machine up becasue the power went off. Wrong fuse! Since I have only taken it to authorized Janome service shops, I wonder who did it! That cost $35.00 for that and recalbrating my screen. It was in the shop in December for the recalibration and that cost $70.00. The prices are all over the place, so I wish wish you well. I have no idea what your repair will run.
|
90 for the repair.
|
I guess I am lucky because my repairs sre free via my hubby. It amazes me how cheap the parts and how expensive labor is. Makes you want to take a sewing machine repair class.
|
If you have a mechanical machine (not electronic) we have the virtual vintage sewing machine shop here on this board to learn how to service your own machines. Billy and helpers can show you how to take your machine totally apart and re-assemble it so it is all oiled and ready to sew! Check it out on the main page at the very bottom. There is so much we can do ourselves on the older vintage machines.
|
Don't like to be a kill joy, but I think it will be about $100.00. Used to know a lady who had the same thing go wrong, don't remember what she was given for a price. But she didn't get it fixed. Good luck and I hope I am WAY OFF and it's only $10.00. Holding a good thought for you
|
Did you know if you ran the thread down the needle's groove it will go right in the needle's hole if the thread has a clean cut?
|
Depends on your repair guy. My friend was quoted $500 to repair a machine, and told she would be better off replacing it with a new one.I took it to my repair guy and he charged $40 to clean out the lint and it works perfectly...
|
I paid $150 five years ago for mine with it being cleaned too.
|
I'm guessing around $175 for service and parts. I do hope that it isn't this much though. Best of luck.
|
I've seen one in my supply catalog for around $20 + shipping. This is a side cutter which can be attached to your machine. In fact, I have one. This makes you project look like it has been sergered. Is that what you need?
|
$83.00
|
If it is lint about $29, if it involves parts.labor $59.00
|
I am gurdding $83.
|
89.99 just to clean and oil is what they charge around here. So I would guess $115.
|
Hmmm - Is $80 taken? (first choice)
or $90 is second choice. |
i never heard of anything costing less than $100.00, so i say $125.00 and at least one week. i hope i'm wrong on both.
what's my prize? blue please. :lol: :lol: |
My guess is around $120. That would be correct in this region.
