I would encourage anyone who wants one to keep looking. I really wanted one. I, too, decided that I really couldn't spend the money for the prices I'd seen. At that time I was marking the yard sales I wanted to go to. I was driving toward a sale I'd marked and saw another sale, I decided to stop. That is where I got my almost new Go and a strip cutter die. I am still amazed that I found it at such amazingly good price.
