Pfaff 200C Bobbin Case

About a year ago we bought the Pfaff Smart 200C, a small but versatile sewing machine with many stiches and handy functions.
One year of intensive use allowed us to appreciate its qualities, but as with any machine the weak side came out: the bobbin case.
The bobbin case is made mainly of plastic, while high level sewing machines have it made of sturdy metal... now we understand why!
Every time the thread jams, the needle hits the bobbin case leaving a hole... and eventually the case breaks down.
As the machine is now out of production, the replacement is not so easy to find. we found the solution here: http://sewingmachine221sale.bizland.com/store/page37.html
The bobbin case you need fits many models of different makes, but the code is #NB1275000 and is listed in many web shops as replacement for the Singer 3800 series.
Here all the compatible models:
