Hi everyone Happy New Year to you all. Could anyone point me in the right direction, I need some zipper feet and welting feet for a Consew 206rb industrial walking foot machine, I tried to order some from a supplier that is on this site, Toledo industrial machines but to no avail. The company took my order 3 weeks ago and has not shipped anything to me and they haven't even bothered to return my phone calls. Sure would appreciate any input, thanks

Try calling them again. They may have been closed for the Xmas holidays. And many UPS, FedEx packages have been delayed.

Bob Kovar (Toledo) is a very reputable dealer. I'm sure it's just an oversight.

In the unlikely event that Bob is unable to help you, you can do an e-bay search for that model #. There are several e-bay stores that carry those parts. Such as Sharp Sewing Supplies. Even if they don't have your particular part listed on E-bay, you can just call them. I'm sure they'll have it. Most of the welt feet for that model are in the $13-$15 range (shipping included).

I have bought several sets of feet off eBay and have very good luck with all of them. They are not OEM parts but the quality is fine and the prices are also. Your machine is one of the more popular ones in service so parts will be in abundance.

Here's a 1/4" welt foot set for under 10 bucks shipping included:

Their zipper feet are $23.

Like Paul says, they aren't OEM. But they fit just fine. I HAVE bought a few cheapo feet before that required a little grinding to make them fit. But I have also paid top dollar for OEM feet that needed grinding as well.

Thanks everyone for all the info, maybe the holidays did affect the shipping time for Toledo, but as I said I have called them and left about three messages and no one ever got back to me. thanks again

Wow. I have bought two new machines, presser feet and other odd's and ends from Bob and never had a problem. The small items were always shipped the same day. Something must have gone wrong as Bob is one of the best dealers in the country and provides awesome customer service.

Bob Kovar has always under promised and over delivered in his dealings with me. I can't believe that he would have purposely not shipped your order, there must be some unavoidable circumstances that contributed to the problem.

Elsa,
I'm real sorry you didn't get your order I will have to admit we made a mistake.
The parts came in while I was gone on vacation & the order some how just didn't get shipped.
