Seriously… it really isn’t… but what it is ..is an unboxing post .. get used to these.
I have been spoiling myself and there are quite a few fun boxes waiting to get opened. Now I do have a good reason to share this one. It would be amiss of me not to give a huge shout out to Sainsmart on this one.
I finally gave in to my Kid’s 2 years of asking for a 3D printer and bit the bullet… with an Creality Ender-3 V3 Plus 3D Printer << WARNING Affiliate Link, you may inadvertently support a blogger.
This is not my first purchase from Sainsmart and I can tell you it most definitely won’t be my last. You will find out about the other purchases later, but first impressions count and I can honestly say I have never ever had a product packed and shipped to the standard these guys package their products.
On top of that.. the customer service at this company is Top Notch. ( Huge shout out to Bettina who always seems to get my emails and provides the best customer service … )
As we get further in and if you check out the L8 Laser engraver and Genmitsu CNC Router posts coming you will understand why I choose to go with Sainsmart when I decided to add a 3D printer to the craft arsenal.
* First class customer service
* Top Notch Packaging
* Fantastic community, which you really need when breaking in to starting with some of these machines.
*No unnecessary returns, shipping costs and downtime for simple repairs ( Bless you Bettina !!! )
I digress.. but you get the idea.
Soo my 3D Printer arrived… sitting on my doorstep ..thank you Amazon Shipping service
My TPU 3D Printing Filament << WARNING Affiliate Link, you may inadvertently support a blogger.
Whole different story…An “unnamed” courier service decided to mark it as attempted delivery… trust me I work from home and have the most annoying doorbell on the planet.. you did not attempt to deliver. But in a gesture of good will I am going to go downstairs and make a new door sign that says DOORBELL..with an arrow … just in case you did not realize that ugly ass box on the wall next to my door..is a doorbell.. no not the ugly intercom that spews static in to my apt…. the other one.
So yup, here I am.. a beautiful new 3D printer to assemble… and no filament. So I put the box to one side and figured I would unpack it tomorrow when “unnamed courier service” allegedly are going to attempt another delivery. So I call said “unnamed courier service”…about 4 hours ago .. still waiting on that “call back within the hour” LOL. so I decided to go down and open my box anyway….and BOOYAH Sainsmart, you did it again … there is filament in my Printer Box.
Sometimes it is just the little things.. the added extras you find that weren’t mentioned on the product page. Like the reel of filament, tools and such.
<< I decided to have some fun since people get upset over affiliate link disclosure not being obvious enough on some sites… so yes there are << AFFILIATE LINKS on this page and will be even more throughout the Blog in various places. I am compensated for purchases made through these links. However there are also a lot of links on this Blog that are there just because I like the product, or service.. and I don’t share affiliate links for products I am not interested, own, or want to own.
