There are a couple of places that you can buy used craft tools - the most obvious of course is E-Bay but some people don't like the whole bidding thing and it can be frustrating if you try to sell items and they don't sell or sell at a very low price.
In Ireland, Cara Craft supplies has a chat forum and swapshop section. You can place a post looking for items or to sell/swap as well. You can also source your invitation supplies and buy new trimmers/boards etc.
In the UK - UK scrappers has a huge marketplace and is worth checking out - if you are looking for anything at all add a free request post and potential sellers contact you by message. here.
Or there is another chat forum with a buy and sell section here.
On a quick website hop I found the following, that I think are pretty good bargains -
trimmer
card not thick enough for invitations on its own but great for inserts and printing text on.
gold card great heavy weight gold card, nice shine - great price - available in silver too.
half price sale - a bit hit and miss but you might find a bargain.
As for E-Bay there are hundreds of pages but a word of warning - watch out for the rotary blade paper trimmers for less than fifteen euro - a lot of them are useless, been there done that! Brands to look out for include Woodware, X cut and Purple Cows.
