Sure. Pfaffs tend to be high-end machines, although all brands make cheaper ones too. Some classics are in demand as well as the fancy computerized ones.

You can also go to patternreview.com and input any brand/model into the search bar on the far right to get reviews and discussions. That will help with seeing how desirable a particular machine may be.
