I bought the AccuQuilt go on sale for 350.00 this came with 11 dies 3 mats and the AccuQuilt Go. I have not had time to use it yet but after much research I thought it was the best machine and the best deal. Yes the dies are expensive but if you look you can get good deals. I bought a 8 in rag die and a critters die set for 30.00 on ebay and that was a deal!!!!!
