  1. Hi Gordon
    I read some time ago that if you bought the machine there would be a lifetime 10% discount on all future purchases from you. Is this still being offered?
    Good luck with the machine

    1. Hi Leonie
      We have decided to go ahead with the machine at this price when we could have gone so much higher to make it affordable for everyone . We have also included a free a4 embossing folder and we are keeping free postage for pre orders only despite the cost . Our new site will give everyone additional discounts when it goes live , but we are not yet ready to do this which is why we are giving a free a4 folder for the moment . This will not be offered when the new site goes live . Gordon

  2. Hi Gordon

    A few questions....

    when can I come into the shop for a demo?
    Do we pay in full for a pre order?
    when will they arrive?
    can we choose which embossing folder is free?
    is the embossing mat a 'no shims' one?
    Do I get a discount if I collect, rather than you pay for delivery?
    Many thanks Jan

    1. From wednesday onwards . Im afraid in full as we now have to pay for them in advance .We already have the free folder in production , sorry. You dont need the no shims mat with this machine as it has its own a4 mat which does all of the things we mention.If you collect the machine we will offer £5 extra discount . Gordon

  3. I was expecting a much higher price and thinking it would be too expensive for me. I am delighted to see the machine at that price and will put Birthday money together to buy one

    Any idea when you will start despatching?

  5. Hi Gordon, when are you expecting despatch of the A4 version. I nearly bought a GC a couple of weeks ago and then found your blog, luckily I decided against the GC and waited for the piccies to be published for your machine. I think I will pre order one once I have seen a video of it working. Good luck with the sale of this product, Debbie x

    1. we will allways be once upon a stamp. We have however a new brand name for the machine and dies to go under , but everything is ultimately under our usual name .Gordon

  8. Hi Gordon

    Do you have a video of the machine in action? It would be good to see as I'm very interested in purchasing one but don't live near any of your demonstrations. Also would it be possible to see examples using dies / embossing folders from other manufacturers using this machine.

    Cheers :-)

    Will the machine cut and emboss at the same time like the fiskars fuse? I was hoping we would see a demo here by now so that we can see it in action
    The fiskars fuse looks big and clumsy but like what it does but it is not for me

    1. Hi
      I was about to bring th fuse to the uk and i had an order ready for 100 machines when we were over in the usa . However they refused to show it working with other makes of dies, so we tore up the order . All machines emboss dies as they are cutting , but not very deeply , so you have to emboss them with an embossing mat , the fuse is no different . We upset the fiskars people t the uk trade show when we told them of our new 12 x 12 machine coming this summer . Looks like the fuse in many ways and folds up , but it features the new pressure switch technology like our new a4 machine so it does not require an expensive adapter kit like the fuse does. They were also struggling o demo the machine even with there own texture plates and seemed very scared of there own machine , not good im afraid. We will work on some vids once the new web site is activated which i hope will be soon . Gordon.
