I recently bought my Go for 199 at Joann's. So far I've just used the die that came with it and I can tell that with use that I'll go through those mats like paper...even with turning & flipping. I do think that I'm going to like it. I just have to save some money for more dies. The first one that I'm going to get is the 2 1/2" strip. Also, looking at the rag dies. Actually, I guess I have my eye on a lot of different dies.
