I’m still obsessed with the Gocco. My only reluctance in purchasing one is that I’m so busy I’m afraid I won’t have the time to play with it (my huge scrapbooking collection has sadly been collecting dust for the past couple of years). It’s also a bit pricey with all the pieces I’d need and I’ve been trying to cut back on expenses.
But I’m dreaming about all the fabulous weddingbee t-shirts, and cards, and crafts I could create with this baby. Then it’d just be a business expense. 
These are the ebay auctions I have my eye on:
Print Gocco PG-5 Hi-Mesh B6 - currently @ $172.50, auction ending today
Handstamp Kit for Cloth - currently @ $26.00, auction ending tomorrow
or maybe I should get the large format Gocco - currently @ $14.00 w/ a $50 shipping cost :o, auction ending in 5 days
Oh wise Gocco owners, advise me please. Should I get a Gocco?
I saw your post earlier and fell in love with this little machine. Immediately I had Willy Wonka style visions in my head.
B-6 at dick blick for 45.99 plus shippping. Saves you quite a bit.
totally get it! you know you love this stuff…and they dont even make it anymore!!
I went to the paper source today in DC, and they’re not selling the machine anymore, but they are selling the inks.
i went to paper source georgetown a while back, and spoke to a nice saleswoman who had a print gocco. she had lots of great advice, and said it would be very easy and cheap to print invites or favors or assorted wedding products!
seems like a small investment with a very big and happy payout…
get the larger one for $14+$50 OR get both, test them out and sell one back on ebay.
if they discontinue the ink, are there other compatible inks?
damn, i want one too.
I had a discussion today with my husband trying to convince him to purchase this gismo for me. He said that I will surely collect dust and not use it like other stuff that I got in the long run. I got this sewing machine and never even bother to use it. So I guess I have to wait.
Thanks to you, Mrs. Bee I am so obsessed with Gocco too. I’ve just spent the entire morning at work (eek!) researching and I found this vendor:
http://www.welshproducts.com/printgocco/printgocco_supplies.htm
Except I can’t find anywhere on the site that allows online ordering. I’m not even sure this is an updated website, as the link can’t be found on the homepage. I might just have to give them a call.
I have a box for my GOCCO and all of its parts. Since I live in a tiny studio apartment, the drying process quickly consumes my life whenever I have a project. In 10 months, I’ve made LOTS of projects… one at a time with parts everywhere.
If you’re a stationary junkie - you need one. I have forbid myself from buying ANY stationary other than blank cards to GOCCO. Whenever I see something neat, I go home and make it for myself and save the extras as gifts. I also usually visit PaperSource 2-3x a month… and that inspires me! But it’s only worth it if you’re up for the crafting…
Ignorant question: why is the larger one so much cheaper than the smaller? Does it do and have exactly the same things? If so, it seems like a no-brainer ($172 vs. $64)! What am I missing?
its because the small one’s auction is ending today while the big one still has 5 more days. the price is sure to rise as the days pass.
I’m guessing the larger one’s price will skyrocket before the end of the auction. I looked into these last night and it looked like a large one was going for *gasp* $500+ dollars. A little ridiculous.
It might have been a different model, I’m not sure.
Yes! Get one! It’s an investment in your business! Also we want to see what you come up with! Let your creativity flow!
OMG !! In Japan, we use Print-Gocco to make New Years Card. I never thought I would see this in the U.S. and for wedding related things! Fascinating!
I know Pearl Art downtown (uptown for you, Mrs. Bee) used to carry Print Gocco machines. You might want to make your way over.
oh i want one!!! too bad there’s not too commong :(:(
yes!yes!yes!
and i’m gonna get one too.
long time ago, i took a wedding invitation workshop and the instructor told us that gocco is such a cheaper, easier way to go on any sorts of printing, especially for weddings.
i’ve been putting off the urge to get one myself ’til i read mrs. bee’s posts.
it’s all your fault. hahah j/k!!
yes get it… you can do so much with it - from a business point of view. i’d get one, but between jewelry and scrapbooking.. sigh.. plus i don’t have space for it.. i can’t wait until i have my own art room!
