RE: Unofficial Prusa Mini Wait Thread

I am a tad hesitant to post this but I just got a shipping notice and I hope this bodes well for others.   The odd part of this is my order date, October 29th!

Either that is one big stack of printers they are shipping or I am the recipient of some undeserved good fortune.  Hope it's the former and not the latter for the sake of everyone on the waitlist.

That's unfair, I ordered on the 23rd and no notice for me 🙁 maybe it has something to do with your location as well

Did you update the spreadsheet?

RE: Unofficial Prusa Mini Wait Thread

It is totally unfair and why my hesitation in posting. I didn't add to the spreadsheet since this seems so random and I don't thinks it is a good data point.

I have two guesses as to what happened.

1) Unlikely:  I have purchased four printers from PR in the last 6 months and they gave me some priorty.

2) Possible:    Oct. 29 I order two Minis.  Late November the writing is on the wall that I am not going to receive by the end of the year.  I order two MK3S on the Black Friday deal. I then contact CS about reducing Mini order to one.  They suggest canceling original order then doing a new order and offer to apply original order date to the new one.  My guess is that they copied the original order date incorrectly and inadvertently moved me up in the queue.

Man, when they said that orders were going out by the end of the month, they weren't kidding. I'm curious how many days they'll get through by tomorrow?

RE: Unofficial Prusa Mini Wait Thread

Its still odd that my colleagues shipped and mine not, considering we both ordered on the 13th within an hour of each other..

I am wondering if it has anything to do with the textured sheet?

I ordered mine with both sheets, but no Filament sensor (although added the FS later).. Where as my colleague didn't order the extra sheet..

As I said above, I don't mind waiting as I am in no hurry, but just curious as to how Prusa go about forfilling orders. You would think they just work through their backlog in date order.

Chat support told me mine should ship next week or so. I hope they are not BS'ing me again

RE: Unofficial Prusa Mini Wait Thread

Also, on an unrelated note; if you're coming from another brand of printer to Prusa, what printer do you have currently? Curious if a lot of people are Prusa die-hards, or they're converting to the light from the darkness. I currently have an Anycubic i3 Mega. It's not great, and it breaks down constantly, but it's gotten me to the point where I can afford a Prusa. You?

Sorry, I didn't want to sound rude, I'm just super jealous! I can't wait as it'll be the first printer I'll actually own. 
Right now I've only printed a few things on a MK3s.

You are going to love it.  I own 3 variants of the MK3s and I never regret a single purchase.  I really want to buy another one at an MMU.

I am not new to Prusa, but I own an Ender-3, CR-10S Pro, and Anycubic Predator.  

  1. Ender-3 - I am trying to get the ender-3 working this weekend with marlin 2.0.  If successful, I will add to the two prints and 2 hours of print time.  I have never been able to get iot to work.  Pure Garbage so far.
  2. CR-10S Pro - I have about 60 hours on it.  It was key to me printing my parts for a 1/37th scale Saturn V Rocket.  I will replace it with a Prusa XL when they are released.  It is temperamental and tough to leveled at times but if patient, it is serviceable.  
  3. Anycubic Predator: Sounds like an alien invasion when printing but nard near perfect results.  I would buy it again and considered a second but though alien invader in stereo might be too much.

I doubt it.  More likely something else on the order.  Are they the same color?   They are only part way through the 13th based on posts here and on facebook.

Interesting! The predator was always intriguing to me, as I've always want to dip my toes into delta printers. I've heard the same about Ender 3s unfortunately. You get what you pay for I guess.

Yup.  I have about 600-700 in it now.  I should have just bought a MK3S.

I had the issue with one of my printers bring out of range from my router.  It is in my garage which is 2000-3000 feet from my house.  I bought a direction antenna and booster to “boost” the range.

Good point.. I went for black which is less common I guess than Orange.

Black can be both earlier to ship and later.  It depends.  I have seen both happen.  The seem to print in batches.  If they an extra black, it might bypass some oranges to fill order with the parts that are already printed.
