I have found an Amaya XT that sounds like a pretty good deal and it is fairly close to me. Not many opportunities to purchase good used commercial machines in Arkansas!!
The lady said she purchased it new 4 years ago with the plans of starting an embroidery business when she retired. Now that she has retired she said her health is keeping her from being able to spend the time necessary with the machine and wants to sell it. She has only used it for personal home use since its purchase.
She said it comes with the stand, standard embroidery hoops and hat hoops, Design Shop software and a complete set of Dakota Designs.
I have been reading about the Amaya XT, and need to ask if the software is Pro or Lite version and what operating system it comes with. Seems like the Amaya OS is the preferred one?
She is going to spend some time with me to show me how to thread it and go thru the process of stitching out a design.
What else should I ask to be shown or expect to be included in the package. She is including all the thread, stabilizer and supplies she has for the machine as she will not have a need for it any longer.
If the machine looks good, runs good and all the accessories are there, my next concern is that there is not any techs in Arkansas.
How often do you need to have the machine serviced (w/o any breakdowns or problems).
I am going to just be starting out, will do some local jobs and have a nich I want to work. Will also use it for my Quilts of Valor patriotic design work.
Looking forward to any comments. Thanks in advance for your time and consideration.
