Hi,
I planned to buy my first 3D printer, and decided that the reprap is the best choice for me.
So, as it is my first one, I prefer to buy a complete kit to avoid errors. Then I found 'thereprapkitstore.co.uk', I sent an email a few days ago but I have no response.
Is this site still alive? Otherwise, is there another store which sell a complete kit for the same price?
Thanks

Ok, it's a bit more expansive but still reasonable.
There is not any information about the kit itself, I understand that it is a full kit, but is there a few PLA/ABS plastic with it ? Or I also need to buy this?

Is a full kit with all you need to assembly your Prusa Mendel.

The kit includes linear bearings, heated bed, and PLA printed parts.

Moreover, printed parts in the extruder are made with our SLS machine (Poliamide).

You can see one of our workshop videos here:

thereprapkitstore.co.uk is still alive. I got an email from James this morning in reply to one I sent a few days ago. He said he was working through his email backlog.

Well that's good to know because I'm still yet to hear from him, at least he's checking his emails.

By the way I ordered a kit from thereprapkitstore.com and got it very quickly because I live about 20 miles away from them but the linear bearings were missing which I'm still waiting for almost a week later, with no email response from the seller. Other than that the kit was excellent but communication is poor.
