You can get them for that off ebay or from leaping lemur. They are at least £90 full price.

jenk1 · 15/06/2006 18:56

YG- what are the sizzlits ones, are these cheaper?

sizzlits ones are the £60 ones and are designed for the sidekick. Have a look on the sizzix website, there are some lovely ones. I've got Girls are Weird which I love.

no, it was from America.

Does this mean that it will be ages before the UK stockists will get it, if so i will just have to buy another one!!!! Grin

couldn't agree more whizzz!! Grin

jenk1 · 17/06/2006 11:13

Carolinett,do you buy sizzix from the US?

OP posts:
Pixiefish · 17/06/2006 11:32

jenk1- I often buy sizzix from the states via ebay. Be careful of customs though as you MAY have to pay import duty but then again I never have (yet)

Buying direct from Sizzix is no cheaper really as they have different prices for the UK market to their US prices (v unfair I think)

jenk1 · 17/06/2006 12:06

thanks pixie Smile
