I have gotten most of my cutting dies on www.shoppersrule.com you make a bid on what you want to pay and they will tell you if they except the price or not. and if they don't they give you the price that they well except. also they have the dies on sale quite a bit at 30% off. I just order the new dog & cat dies that are for the baby go but you can use them on the regular go and they were $14.00.
Love the machine it is fun to use and does a great job.

They also have the starter set with 8 dies and 3 pads for a lot less than if you were to get the AQGo at 199 and even if you could get each of those dies for 1/2 price. And no early morninf black friday mad rush. I do appreciate all of the feedback and hope others have benefitted also.

It came with a starter set and I ordered the wedding ring -- I have always loved this quilt and I plan to make several of them. The dies are pricey but I found a site that sells them at a 25% discount. I will let you know if it is a worthwhile investment once I get going on it.
