Default Score Pal - yes or no

I will probably buy it, but can you ladies talk me into it a little? Pros and cons please.
thanks

YES!!!!! Perfectly scored cards every time. No need to keep swapping back and forth between cutting and score blades. Cute boxes and scored project in a jiffy. Excellent customer service.

Go for it!

I just bought one and it scores better than I expected. I thought I might have a problem with the tool jumping around and not staying in the groove. But, it works perfectly. Plus, there are loads of projects on the company site. Go for it!

What a great link! Thanks for sharing!

Yes. Take a look at what Sue Nelson does with it.

I haven't found any other way of reproducing those score lines, and I tried a lot of different techniques before I bought a Scor-Pal.

Yes Yes Yes. I waited awhile to get mine and it wasn't till I had it that I realized how much I use it! Not just for perfectly scored cards - for making score lines to accent cards and for making my own patterned paper for my sb pages. I use it alot to make envelopes for hidden journaling....no cons for me only pros.

I was on the fence about a Scor-Pal for a long time but once I bought it and started using it I had to kick myself for waiting so long to get one. It is light weight and really easy to use. I say go for it.

YES- You get a fabulous scoring tool and a whole website full of FREE templates and ideas to go along with it! A fabulous value! Yes, again! Diana, Roy and the gang at Scor-pal are amazing!

I've had the Scor-Pal for almost a year, but I haven't really used it. Maybe I'll have to break it out and give it a go.

I have only had mine for two weeks and can't believe that I lived without one for so long. It sure beats swapping out blades on my trimmer to score and the lines are perfect everytime.
You totally need this tool, and the projects on their site are great!

Yes, you NEED it! It's great for cards, but totally worth the $40 if you make boxes, etc. It makes it so easy. I work in an office of between 40-50 people and put something in all our mailboxes for each holiday, it saves so much time and frustration. Also, like mentioned, check out their website for great ideas.

I just got mine in January. Even if I only used it to score my card bases, it would be worth it. But it can do so much more. It took a bit of time to remember to use it. I kept reaching for my old score tool out of habit. Now I can't imagine going without it.

I got mine for my birthday last Sept. and my husband and son ordered it from the Co. online. But with all the talk on here about the new scor tool that Scorpal came out with, I went online, put in my husbands email and they confirmed it was bought from them. I just received my two new and improved tools in todays mail. They feel awesome. But, I have now seen the ScorPal at my LSS. They are showing up all over. And YES YES YES you do NEED one. It's not a want, it's a NEED! Good luck.

I bought mine from Gina K. She has free shipping for orders over $35, so the Scor Pal qualifies for that and her price is the same as anywhere else I have seen. You can also order directly from Scor Pal.

I also bought mine from Gina K. I couldn't believe how quickly they shipped. I ordered it around midnight (couldn't sleep) the Friday before Presidents Day and it arrived on Tuesday. The PO was closed Monday. How cool is that!

I love it!

I ordered mine right from Scor-pal. I don't think I got any special deal, but it was worth every penny that I paid!
YES, you NEED it!

YES!!!!!!

I bought mine at www.scor-pal.com for the $ 39.99 almost 2 years ago and I love it and the Scor-Mat as well. You don't even need to move your Scor-Pal anymore if you have this baby. I just saw yesterday that www.7kidscollegefund.com has the Scor-Pal for $29.99 after an instant rebate of $ 10.00. But it really does not matter where you buy it, just BUY it

Yes, you should buy one! I had a mini Scor-it but just couldn't get the right angle and kept cutting the paper. The ScorPal is so much easier to use IMO. The best thing is the ability to do multiple scorelines without moving the paper - less chance for errors. I leave mine out between my CB and Tonic paper cutter - the Big 3.

Called Scor Pal and talked to Diana Crick, owner, designer of ScorPal. She explained how to use it with me looking at the ScorPal on my computer screen. How nice is that!! Called Scor Pal recently and talked to her husband. Both of these folks are so nice, easy to talk to and helpful.

YES from me too. And you know I have seen this question several times on several different message boards and I don't think I have ever seen anyone post NO. No one I have ever seen/heard regrets it!

i have to say when i got mine last year it was a love~ hate relationship. i was all set to send it back, but the more i used it, the better i got at measuring(mine is the old one ) and i really have to say i reach for it with every card and it is automatic. i never put it away and i am glad i never sent it back.
