※ Malicious complainers are on the rise. Let's be careful. ※ I get asked this a lot, but questions like "When did you buy it?" or similar ones are meaningless. For example, with a car, some people drive over 100,000 km in a year from new. Also, if someone only uses their new car for shopping trips to the nearby supermarket, even if the exterior looks bad, the car is undoubtedly in better condition than a car that's been driven a lot. A car with 100,000 km on it might look shiny because it's been taken care of, but it will have problems here and there. That kind of negotiation is difficult, but it's a question often asked by beginners who don't understand sewing machines. Especially with sewing machines, there's a distinction between hobbyists and professionals. The condition will be drastically different between someone who uses it every day and someone who uses it only a few times a year. Of course, it would be great if someone bought it a year ago and never used it, but people can say anything, and many people will say whatever it takes to make a sale. However, sewing machines are honest, and when you open them up for maintenance, you can tell how much they've been used. Sewing machines are delicate machines that move in millimeters, so the answer is immediately apparent. I once bought a two-year-old, shiny sewing machine for 30,000 yen, but the inside was worn out, the stitches were bad, and it broke about six months later. While you can't say it's absolutely certain, with precision machines like sewing machines, you're likely to make a big mistake if you don't choose based on condition. I used to be obsessed with collecting sewing machines, but lately, when I find a broken one, I want to fix it. But some sewing machines are completely unrepairable, and I often end up in the red, but it's still satisfying when they run smoothly again (^-^; I used to be a collector of motorcycles and cars, but the stock of several million or tens of millions of yen was too expensive... But sewing machines, which move in millimeters and are delicate in a different sense, comparable to an engine, are fascinating!! I'm not a professional, just a collector within the hobby range "but I've gone beyond that (^o^;)" Fortunately, I have an acquaintance who used to be a sewing machine technician, and they're helping me out. I test-run all the sewing machines I collect. I'll deliver good quality items at reasonable prices (Aiming to conquer all sewing machines (;'∀')) (But the cost of sewing machine parts is too high (-_-;)

※ 悪質クレーマーが増えてます。気を付けましょう ※ 良く聞かれますが(購入時期はいつですか？)とか、これに近い内容を良く聞かれますが、全く無意味。例えば車なら新車から一年間で10万K超えて走る人も多いです。また新車から買い物程度で近所のスーパーしか行かない人なら、外見は悪くとも間違いなくスーパーの車が程度は良いです。10万Kの車は外見は手入れしてるのでピカピカでも、あちらこちらにガタ出ています。その駆け引きは難しいですが、主にミシンを理解していない初心者に多い質問です。 特にミシンは趣味と職業の人に分かれるので、毎日使う人と、年に数回も使わない人なら程度は歴然と変わります。 勿論一年前に購入で一度も使ってないなんて在れば良いですが、口先だけでは何とでも言えますし、売りたいが為に適当な事を言う人も多い。 しかしながらミシンは正直なので蓋を開けて整備すると、どれくらい使ってたか解ります。ミシンは数ミリで動く繊細な機械なので、答えはすぐ出ます。前に2年落ちのピカピカミシンを3万円で購入しましたが、中はガタガタで縫い目も悪く、半年後辺りに壊れました。絶対にとも言い切れない面も有りますが、ミシン類の精密機械は程度で選ばないと大失敗する可能性が強いです。 ミシンの収集だけにハマってましたが、最近壊れてるミシンを発見すると直してみたくなります。でも中には全く修理不能のミシンも有るので、大赤字の時も多いですが快調に直るとやはり嬉しい(^-^; 前はバイクや車のコレクターだったけど、数百万、数千万のストックは出費がデカ過ぎて、、、 でもエンジンに匹敵する違う意味で繊細な数ミリで動くミシンは魅力的！！自分は業者じゃなく趣味範囲内のコレクターです「でもその粋を越えてきた(^o^;)」 幸いに元ミシンの技術者も知り合いに居るので協力して頂いてます。集めたミシン全て試運転しています。なるべく安くて良い品を、お届けします(目指せ、全ミシン制覇(;'∀'))(とは言えどミシンの部品代高すぎます(-_-;)
