    I found a Singer sewing machine in Argos catalog book.
    But it's in stock,England Argos, not in Ireland.
    So I'm just going to visit Singer sewing branches in Dublin.
    Is anyone to know the locations of the Singer sewing branches in north Dublin?
    Or north Co.Dublin is fine. Personally, don't like Brothers' one.

    I have a Singer Sewing Machine for sale. Small part is needed, easily acquired. Otherwise working perfectly.

    I'm looking for around 100.00 for it. Service will cost about 60.00 and you have a perfect little machine.

    I do leather work etc and had to buy heavier machine.

    Sorry but I want a brand new one and trying to fix my jeans. I also have a small sewing machine but it doesn't work for sewing jeans. I'm looking for the Singer sewing machine about 200~300 euros price.

    Hi
    I bought a new Singer inspiration about 2 weeks ago. I bought it from http://www.singermachines.co.uk/ . These are alot cheaper than the Singer shop on talbot street, I saved about €100 on mine. I would suggest going to shop to see the machine you want and then buy from the website.

    I never realised that there was so many models of singer sewing machines available. I was thinking about getting one for making curtains and basic altering of clothes. There are some there like mini computers and need software!! I wouldn't have a clue what to go for?

    Any Ideas?:confused:

    I want to recommend the ones has the price between 200~300euros. They will be fine for making curtains or fixing clothes. Over 300 euros' ones are available in both ways, sewing and embroidering I see.

    Thanks for the good informations:) I got the good one. Yes I don't trust the price in the shops in City centre. I noticed they are usually more expensive than internet shopping. I hope more internet shopping will be activated on Ireland web. I'm come from S.Korea and there are so many internet shopping malls with cheap price. It's very handy!!

    Hi everyone
    I was given an industrial sewing machine by an elderly neighbour.It was in bits, Had been left in an alleyway for 5 years.I found a brilliant sewing machine mechanic called Jimmy,he put in a new motor replaced parts cleaned it till it was shining,and wouldn,t leave the till he was sure I knew how to use it.He lives on the northside and is very reasonable.I would recomend him to anyone. He is semi retired so available daytime just give him a call on 086-3060987

    Hi
    I have a had a few sewing machines over my life and did fashion design in the Grafton Academy. I used to have a singer but have a Janome now, no better machine on the market. It's my baby and I got it ex demo for £150. I also got the Janome overlocker from Argos in Ireland recently and it's deadly. They also have Janome machines. My mum and aunts all use Janome too. Will last you for donkeys years. My two pence worth!
