content: And relax...I've never been a big fan of 3D printers, if I need anything it's SO much easier to type shapeways.com and wait a couple of days to get something useful made out of sintered stainless that's actually fcking useful instead of warped vaguely useful plastic shite that changes shape while I look at it after waiting 86 hours for it to extrude itself all over my desk.So... little wonder I have some customer returns, people with limited attention spans and shattered expectations, just like myself.CEL ROBOX 3D printers, dual extruder, PLA, ABS, HIPS Nylon, PC, PVA, blah blah blahhttp://uk.farnell.com/robox/rbx01-bk/3d-printer-cel-robox-blue-uk/dp/2440163A masterpiece of marketing over fcking function... Are you getting a clue here?I have 3 of these that are almost unused and boxed with all original spools and accessories. I'd quite like to get rid of the fcking things.One of them actually powered up and printed something. It took 4 hours installing the software on various PC's until one of them had the correct screen resolution and alignment of planets so that it actually worked. Print came out ok first time though, amazed me..Full reel of filament included, anybody want it for £200 plus shipping? No VAT on this thing as it's SHIT and therefore VAT exempt.I have 2 others in unused condition, boxed with full reels of filament. Both of them move in all axes, beds and extruders heat up, but there seems to be intermittent contact between the controller and the extruder head assembly. the LED lighting goes on and off when you wobble the removeable extruder assemblys. Sold as seen, I have no patience to figure out what's wrong and the hammer is looming... £150 each for these, or both for £250. Plus shipping of course. I'm not a fcking charity.ALL SOLDShipping £10 UK, £20 sensible EU countries.

content: Saw this and laughedToploser hates 3D printers.One of the biggest favors Toploser did for me was selling me a lovely UP! Mini 3D printer. It works perfectly and produces excellent prints in ABS plastic. I liked it so much that I bought a second one from ebay that needed minor repair. Toploser is such an honest person that he does not polish turds, you get an accurate description of what he is selling. If he ever got another UP! printer I would buy it though. Great units.Fraser

content: Quote from: Fraser on October 28, 2016, 05:05:51 pmi believe it goes down to our acceptance of what current technology can provide to us at that particular price, versus of what we expect of the outcome. i believe he expect few bucks of 3d printer can provide super smooth and super sharp tolerance printout. heck i even saw more expensive plastic FDM printer like stratasys produced plastic printout just as bad as cheap oshw printer.

content: I don't polish turds, I have been known to roll them in glitter though!And no I don't expect smooth perfect prints, I'd just like to plug one in and have it produce stuff I can use without losing my sanity. I've seen how many of these get returned and it would seem I'm not alone.

content: I'd rather hear what TopLoser thinks about what he is selling, than what some scammer thinks you want to hear about what he is selling.I've bought stuff from him in the past, described as a perfect condition product in a broken box, and it was just that for about 75% off.But I won't sing his praises too highly or I will get more competition next time I want to buy from him.
