New cameo?

[w33blegurl]

Hello! After managing to fix my aging Cameo it's starting to play up again and while there are some sales on for Black Friday I figured it might be worth looking at upgrading. I'm thinking a cameo 3 rather than 4 - has anyone seen any great bargains? Amazon is not coming up with anything different than the usual price!
Thanks

Hi Julia, just a word of caution... Many sites look like they are a good deal but this is because they are quoting ex-VAT prices, so the price ends up much the same as the others that are quoting VAT inclusive when you do the maths. Plus there is a price reduced site out there which is actually based in Spain so the products are coming from there, (I know because I have used it for my FoilQuill stuff) . If you need assistance or repairs it's a long way to have to return a machine - I'm not sure what Graphtec's policy on a machine from abroad might be, even though the Spanish site offers machines with UK plugs . I have just taken delivery of a new Cameo3 - a Christmas present from my DH, bless him, and it sits patiently waiting for Christmas whilst I carry on with my Cam2 for the time being! I got mine from Graphtec. I trust them (no, I don't work for them or have shares in the company) and Brian is so, so helpful as they all are actually. I chose the Cam3 and got it early because I'm not sure that the 4 won't be a bit too specialised for what I need and because the rumour is that Silhouette plan to cease production of the 3. Of course I hope I haven't made a big mistake in my decision, I guess the 4 is always there if I find I have. Hope you find your deal if it is out there.

Thanks both!! AndiDee - I too am a bit wary of the "if it seems to good to be true..." I'll take a look at Graphtec too, thanks!
