RE: Unofficial Prusa Mini Wait Thread
Enjoy. I will tell you from experience that the Original is better than any clone. I own two clones. Neither is as good as the orginal.

RE: Unofficial Prusa Mini Wait Thread
I just got my tracking number from prusa 😀 I placed my order in March 16th (Mini+ pre-assembled black color, filament sensor, no filament). Maybe this gives others a clue how long they have to wait. Expected shipping on the waiting table says shipping from 12th April on, so I'm a few days ahead.
I hope delivery is fast to germany via Hermes, would be very sweet to print on the weekend.
RE: Unofficial Prusa Mini Wait Thread
My Pre-assembled arrived just now, 3 weeks from the order. (to Hungary)
Pre-assembled black, both sheets, no filament sensor, 3 spools of filament, a few nozzles.
Another happy landing.

I've had mine 12 days now. I've gone from never having seen a 3D printer to a constantly printing fanatic in less than 2 weeks. I love this printer!!
RE: Unofficial Prusa Mini Wait Thread
Today I did my first Print (Prusa Logo 2 Times and now a whistle). My First Logo was horrible because of a screw problem. But now he is printing nice (atm) - next will be a benchy 🙂
RE: Unofficial Prusa Mini Wait Thread
I just my Email that my Order (Original Prusa MINI+ Spring steel sheet, Filament sensor. Filaments Prusament PLA Azure Blue ,Prusament PLA Gentleman's Grey 1kg , Prusament PLA Prusa Galaxy Black 1kg ) that was placed on March 17th Was marked as Shipped and i got my tracking from Fedex. YAY!

@octo
i ordered March 17 so hopefully i get a welcome email
RE: Unofficial Prusa Mini Wait Thread
Glad to see active community and positive vibes at the forum! And good to see that people seem to be getting their printers on time or earlier than expected! Ordered 21st of march and expecting my assembled mini set with all extras to be shipped next week.
While waiting I had time to learn Blender to do some first 3D sketches.
First thing to print is feet extensions to my Ikea table:
While at it modeled the whole foot. The idea is to add a small hole to the extension to allow tightening screw to be added from the side.
I recommend getting into some printing and 3D modeling tutorials while waiting for the printer to arrive, makes the wait more tolerable. 😉
Anyways happy waiting to rest of the gang and greetings from Helsinki Finland! Keep it up!

Got a call this morning from Fedex to pay the duties/taxes on my Mini+ Kit and the package is now showing "Out for Delivery". Very excited!!!
Just in case anyone is interested, the package left Prusa's offices via FedEx on Wednesday April 7 and is arriving here in Toronto, Canada two days later on Friday April 9. Canadian duties and taxes via FedEx were $80.52 Canadian (US$64) so not as bad as I expected.
Looking forward to assembling the kit over the weekend and maybe even printing a benchy.

I'm at the 3 week mark for my mini assembled order... Soon!
I have a bunch of different filaments, a pair of Ikea lack tables, about 200 files bookmarked on thingiverse, and a handful of my own 3D design files I've been practicing with fusion 360.
My mini is gonna be printing non-stop lol! (My first printer)
RE: Unofficial Prusa Mini Wait Thread
HUZZAH! I got a tracking number for my Mini+, orange/black assembled, with filament sensor and a roll of galaxy silver, ordered march 20th.
I nearly jumped out of my chair when I checked the notification on my phone lol.

Congrats! Same order date here (20th of march), both spring steel sheets, sensor and galaxy black filament + some extras. Got my DHL tracking code around 5pm today, but its not yet shipped, but surely soon enough. Now I hope I would have invested to faster delivery, went for economy DHL.

I had no idea what I'd print when I ordered my printer. Now it's going almost 24/7 and I'm planning to order the Original Prusa i3 MK3S+ kit for my upcoming birthday.
