Hi
I was just wondering if anyone has a source for purchasing the retired sizzix dies? I ve only just got into using the dies and love them now, but find that all the ones I would like are the retired ones!! Typical! Most of them go for a fortune too on ebay! Any ideas?
Thanks!
Helene

Hi Helene and welcome to the forum. You kinda answered your own question there, I'm afraid. As those dies are rare then they will become more sought after and the seller on Ebay will take advantage of that. But if you use http://fatfingers.com/ it will show you misspelt sizzix dies when you enter the name into their search box and you'll get a better chance of finding the rare one nobody noticed because......well they're misspelt or in the wrong category! :)

Hi Helene, we still have quite a few of the older dies. I also have a contact that might have the odd one you're looking for, but it is a US contact so they will cost more due to the increased shipping costs. Let me know any that you are lookiing for and I'll see what I (well Susan actually as she's the Sizzix goddess) can do.

I have a ton of old sizzix dies that I would be happy to get rid of just for postage costs. However, as I'm in France postage costs can get quite high (especially for the original thick dies). However if there are particular ones that you want I'll look through to see if I have them, Cheers, Rebecca

Hi --
I'm looking for the original purple dresden fan die -- 38-0717. Any chance I could buy it from you if you have it? If you have a list of other dies, I'd consider those as well.
Thanks.
