I have a p1p 8 months?, a1 mini 3 months? bought directly from bambu. out of the box they were great.
pick up a a1 combo at local microcenter. The bottom label was pealing off, the sticker that shows the green holes that we are to put screw was misallined. Both minor I think. but then running the first print it say the x axis belt tension was off… (the resonance frequency of the x axis is low. the timing belt may be loose.) So is quality control slipping? is the QC for the micro center printers different from direct from bambu?
They all come from the same place.
It may have been a return that Microcenter was selling as new?
Could be. I guess they felt it didn’t need to go the open box route. Didn’t think that’s legal. Guess depends on where you are.
