I’m assuming this site is a scam? https://bambulub-us.shop/ It purports to be Bambu’s US store, with RIDICULOUSLY low prices, but it’s not the standard Bambu US shop URL. A link to it popped up in my Facebook feed.
I mention it mainly to bring it to Bambu’s attention if they want to pursue getting it shut down.
I was going to report the post on Facebook but when I flipped back to FB, the page refreshed and I lost the post.
Yes, it is a scam.
This is not the support email!
If you are looking to give your money to someone who will not deliver you a printer, let me know. I will provide you with my PayPal account details.
Bonus, I will not give 5 printers for every 4 printers you buy.
These fake shops are booming at the moment. And most of them are very well made, like this one with the timer and other triggers to push you to a fast decision. But some elements are just screenshots from the original Bambu page…
For Germany there is a fake shop checker available: Fakeshop-Finder
If you provide your shop URL, you will get a very good result if it is a fake shop or not.
I reported it to Facebook as a scam twice yesterday. I received 2 notices from them today claiming the site was legitimate lol.
8 days later it’s still up. If I was Bambu I would try to get it taken down ASAP

sneaky, the name is spelled wrong, “bambulub” should have been your first. clue.
Yep, I just got scammed by another FB Bambu Lab warehouse sale scam.
I had a funny feeling about the count down timer pressure, but I did it, wanting to get a good price.
Should have known better, as I am usually pretty careful, but they got me.
Now I have to aks PayPal to refund my money.
Wish me luck.
good luck, hope you finally learned.
Thanks. PayPal issued an immediate refund.
I think you misunderstood my post, when you said “hope you finally learned”.
This is the first and only time I have been scammed, in 26 years of using the internet.
None the less, I did learn from this experience, and wanted to share, so others may benefit from my experience.
Good luck, I got scammed on a purchase, even clicked on the vendor protection box. No protection at all. PayPal told me clicking ment nothing because the vendor was not on their vendor protection list. Never got a reversal or cancellation. I hope you do get your money back. I quit using PayPal, Venmo, or Zelle for online purchases. I only use Zelle or PayPal for personal accounts of my friends and family.
i nearly got scammed by a different url over filaments. I got lucky. Paypal had already blocked payments to them on their end.
the only sale i know of is at micro center, got me a second X1C for $1088 after tax
