This is really old news. Accuquilt implemented the policy last year. All the merchants and reps knew the deadline was May 15, 2014.

Yes, it is old news but I guess those who are selling dies at discounted prices are now trying to clear their inventory and will probably not be a distributor for the company any longer for whatever reason. I own a GO and have many dies, all purchased at "discounted" price from other than accuquilt company......this decision is going to chance my future purchases, if any! The mfgr never had the best price that WAS out there...sad thing is they just announced 11new dies...and I was tempted on a few, but not now...lived with rotary cutter and mat and will go back to that more often now....I think the company is getting greedy...unless, of course, they will sell us the dies at the price they were charging their distributors.....that would be a good trade off. JMHO

They're not going to hear complaints here. I e-mailed them with my dismay. If you don't like what's happpening, take it to the source! It may fall on deaf ears, but at least they'll know. Their email address is [email protected]

I have bought many dies at the retail price when the one I wanted wasn't on sale anywhere. I like a good sale price but that isn't going to stop me from buying the dies I want. It's easy to find sales on other items to make up for the non sale price of a die.

Cindi - GOOD suggestion - done!

Hmmm... I wonder what's going to happen at Nancy's Notions.... I have bought quite a few dies from there, and they are always on sale for a small discount. I have bought from Accuquilt directly also, but you need to spend $100 to get free shipping from them, and I always get shipping free from Nancy. Oh well, I have only a few dies already, and I don't plan on getting the entire line, so I will just be selective with my purchases. Nobody needs every single die anyway.

I don't need them but that doesn't matter, I want them. LOL I seldom use my rotary cutter anymore. If there is a die for the size I want to cut I will buy the die. I haven't cut a quilt pattern with a rotary cutting in a long time. I'm spoiled to perfect cuts.

... I just received a message from one of the vendors I've used stating that after May 15 NO ONE will be allowed to sell at less than the recommended price set by the company. Sounds like no more sales anywhere to me unless Accuquilt gives permission for a special promotion at their discretion.

Sew glad I invested in Sizzix

I won this Sizzix Vagabond electric die cut machine ( http://www.sizzix.com/product/656850...-tim-holtz-reg) and several small shape dies on a blog give away when the Vagabond first came out. It's nice for scrapbooking and cardmaking but not that many quilting dies to choose. I guess I could sell it and buy the new Go dies.
