It cost a bit more $449. but you don't have to spend the big bucks on all those cutting dies. I did see one on Amazon for $399 free shipping. So if your thinking of buying a "GO" check out this machine. I just might get one myself, down the road.
I saw one at the Hershey show and it really was amazing. They cut a quite intricate bird shape out of fabric with a fusible backing. It really was amazing. And with the computer application, you can change the sizes of shapes, and need not new - or ANY - dies, and cut really intricate things. I'm not in the market for something like that, but it really did tempt me!
