That is sound advice Fiona and one I am going to take. I just wonder if other people can be warned in some way about this as that was part of the appeal of getting it from that company as I had a C plate and an embossing mat for a good price, but it isn't quite as simple as that. For those considering getting the machine it is fantastic and you can cut Cuttlebug's dies without the C plate as I have done it but if you want to dip your toe into other dies be careful. I have emailed the shop and pointed this out and asked them to advise me whether I am overlooking something-more out of politeness as I am not good at speaking my mind but at the moment I am not best pleased.
