Hi,
So you spent the time, money and energy into building your printer , now you gonna stick a nasty Chinese clone that will be badly finished, melt before your eye's,great combo they sell it for less without the bolt

I kind of have to agree in light of the Aliexpress comment, a simple search of aliexpress buyer protection forum and the 1st result contains 'Joke', the 2nd contains 'Scam' and the 3rd says 'Beware'. I never used Aliexpress so never had to use their buyer protection but this will keep me well away from ever using it.

not everything/everyone on aliexpress is bad, the business end of the printer isn't really the part to cheap out on because it means the difference between reliable high quality printing or spending all your time on just keeping it running,

keep and eye on reprapdiscount they have a new extruder comming out called the Bulldog [www.flickr.com] i have one on my prusa at the moment and so far with very little actual setting up this thing is worth every cent of whatever they are going to charge for it,
