Looking for kit that ships quickly?

Hello everyone. I've pretty well narrowed down my results on a 3d printer. I've been wanting one for quite some time, and now that I can afford it, I'm ready. My price range is below $500, so it seems the best I can get are the Prusa I3 kits, but I've run into a snag. Everywhere I look, there's quite a long either turn around time or shipping time. I'm currently in the US, so I'm hoping to find someone who ships from here. There's one on Amazon, but it wouldn't get here until next month, and there's one here: [folger-technologies-llc.myshopify.com]# but they're on a 10 day waiting period because of how many they're selling. Basically, I am willing to pay more to have it here some time next week, I just don't see anywhere, but then again, I don't know of that many online retailers that sell them. My question is really what other online retailers sell these for around $400? Or if you know of something other than an I3, that works as well.

Thank you for any answers everyone!!

Qbed twoup arrived 2 days after order. They often dont have any kits in stock though. look on amazon. Also, their upgrade kits (website only) plus the base kit is actually cheaper than the full kit, strangely.

Thank you. I saw those, but the thing I don't like is that they're made of MDF, and I'm just not too much of a fan of that material. I want something to last, though I know my budget isn't very high.

They have a more expensive version made of acrylic plastic of various flavors. They look absurdly cool, especially the transparent ones. Everything that can be lit by LEDs must. I have experiance with this printer (the MDF one), I have practically rebuilt the whole thing without spending extra. But after just a few mods such as the pulley mod, it works as well, if not better, than my school's $25,000 printer.

I do appreciate the help. Unfortunately, Amazon is out of them .

What does everyone think about this: [www.ebay.com]

It seems to be an incredible deal. Almost too good.

I hate buying electronics off of ebay if I actually want them to work. How about this one: [amzn.com]
Edit: Nevermind, it is over the price range. I dunno what then. Perhaps go for one of printrbot's smaller printers?
