I'm just starting all my research into starting the build process of a Prusa Mendel (i2). I'm planning on getting the printed parts from avdwege2003 here on the forums and came across this package on the 'Bay:

Sanguinololu 1.3a Reprap 3d Printer Electronics Package Pololu Drivers, Steppers

I hope it's okay to ask this here, if not, someone please let me know.

Seems like a good price for what all is included. Does anyone have experience with this package/seller? Is he/she a member here on the forums?

Thanks!
Pete

Don't know anything about the seller, but it's not a bad price. The motors will typically run around $15 each so that's $75 (plus shipping) there. And you can get a sanguinololu with stepper drivers for around $100 - $120 on amazon. Not sure if links are allowed so just search for "sanguinololu assembled reprap".
