OH, and the one on ebay that I'm looking at is a buy it now at 55.00 + 10.00 for shipping. Is this a good deal? Thanks!
Is it brand new?
no, it's used. 2 years old
I would go with the Big Shot. It is the newer version and works with the original sizzix dies and the new Ellison thick cut dies. I got mine at Costco, it was around $57 (I am not a member so I had to pay a small surcharge) and the shipping to the East Coast was around $15. It comes with
2 thin cuts, 1 thick cut and 3 embossing folders so it is a way better deal than buying a used sizzix for $55 + $10.Oh since I have both, I will tell you the Big Shot is lighter and I can sit to cut whereas with the sizzix I have to stand up to cut. I almost broke my wrist on the sizzix when it flew back at me so it is also a matter of what one is safer as well.
creativexpress.com is having 50% off on all sizzix this week. I didn't check the prices but you might want to take a look.
cheers, Lenora
ps. I would go with the wizard

it can do anything the sizzix can plus more.
