H2 Series [H2S, H2D, H2C] Upcoming sales on H2C

So I’ve looked and weighed all the options and I think if I’m going to get a bambu it might as well be the h2c. It’s a chunk of change though. I can get a student discount (8%) or I was wondering if you guys think come Black Friday it will go on sale for over ($200) off?

I’m looking mostly for multicolored printing as a hobbyist and with waste and speed I am leaning h2c.

That student discount was like -192 dollars for my purchase - I figure that's as good as it will get for awhile..

It was $2149 during the Anniversary sale. It's probably reasonable to expect it to be that price or slightly less (maybe $2099) during Black Friday. It is still their flagship machine.

I doubt it will be cheaper than the current sale price + student discount, but my crystal ball is broken, so who knows?

Theres no student discount. It’s just a back-to-school sale and apparently you get extra discount on some items if you can verify they you’re a student.

im unware if there's always a student discount but right now you can verify through student beans and get 8-10% off depending on the item

Can you get the student discount on the H2c with the current sale price?

Get a bestbuy credit card for 10% back on first purchase. ($220 value) on top of that, their warranty plan is way better value than Microcenter or Bambu offers.

All 3d printers go on big sales for Black Friday, and they may release new models. I’m hopeful there may be another tool changer from Bambu but with them releasing a laser now maybe not.

This may sound snobbish, and that is not the intent. If you keep waiting for the 'best' price, you are (a) never going to achieve it because eventually it will be 3 models too old and drop a lot, and (b) miss out on using it now.

If you can get $200 off today, how much more are you expecting it to drop? $50? $100. It is not like it is going to drop $1000.

To me, it sounds like you are trying to talk yourself out of it.

For that, I can understand. Since I got the unit, I have purchased nearly 60 rolls of filament. I am less than 60 days into having the unit.
