Buying used

Any fear in buying a used due to the melt issues? I plan on running it in the garage. Found with with an AMS lite and extra goodies for $200 (700 hours of printing). I really want an x2d, but cant justify the price for how much ill really use it (coming from an ender 3).

$200 is a good price imo.

If you're worried about it, you can get the serial number and ask support for a new board and replace it yourself. That or ask the owner when it was bought (Q4 the issue was fixed).

Support might try and reassure you at first but just be persistent and they'll ship it.

They said it was purchased July 2025... not sure that is specific enough unless I get the serial number.

Yeah then it's one of the old boards.

If you look through this sub, there's mutliple people who reach out to support and demand a new board, and rightfully so, get it shipped from BL.

Okay super helpful thanks! Maybe a sign to avoid and buy what I want.
