The Sizzix 12" Big Shot Pro
 

Okay, I decided last night (while making 50 treat containers that would have been super easy with a larger machine) that I MUST have this baby. It's not that I need the huge dies (though I'm sure I'll end up with some), but I want to send through paper that's wider than 6". Can't do that with my BK.

I think the Pro is going to be available soon. I've seen "shipping in November" on a couple sites. Has anyone seen a price better than $279 + free shipping?

I hope M's & J's carry it and I can use a coupon, but the stores are getting picky about what you can buy with the 50% coupons.

So is this thing in stores yet?

bumping this...wondering if the Big Shot Pro is in stores yet?

I haven't seen it yet, nor is it available at the online stores I've been stalking. I think there must be a delay at Sixxi's end, because a couple sites say "shipping in November" but they still don't have the machines & accessories yet.

I just bought it! I've bought Sizzix from this gal before and she has excellent service.

Her price for the Big Shot Pro, including shipping, is $269. The machine weighs about 45 pounds, so she charges a flat rate for shipping it. It's not part of her current "buy $100 and get free shipping."

Shipping for the machine may show up in the cart at first, but it'll come off during checkout. My cart first showed $269 for the machine and $36 for shipping, but I called and got the scoop regarding the process for this heavy item. The $36 did come off as I progressed through checkout.

I don't have any big plans to use a lot of the 12" dies, but I'm excited to be able to send 12x12 scrapbook paper through with ANY die I have. I can put the cut anywhere on the paper!

I just saw the same offer, but I don't think I'm going to bite yet. I have a small fortune invested in sizzix dies, Big Shot and Cricuit.

Me too! I'm rationalizing this by saying that I'll be able to use my dies in even more circumstances. LOL

Maybe at some point if I really get into 12x12 size. but I don't make many boxes or things like that
