I recently acquired an Ender 3 S1 Pro 3D printer. I’ve been wanted a new hard dew shield for my 11″ SCT (aka Elf). Hard dew shields in that size can be pricy, ~$200. It occurred to me that I print one for not a lot if I had a printer. So I shopped around. There are several brands, probably most pretty good, but the Creality Ender 3 series seemed particularly popular. I decided on an Ender 3 V2 for about $250 but decided to wait until Prime Day in hopes of a special deal. As that approached, I stumbled on an Amazon return offer of an Ender 3 S1 Pro for $400 ($100 off). This would be two steps up from the V2 with some upgrades that seemed really nice. The seller, who had bought a pallet of Amazon returns and didn’t know anything about printers, humored me and took lots of pictures. I bought it and amazingly had it the next day. Assembly was simple although I found that the previous guy had neglected to include all the tools that came with it. Still, I got a printer that would have been $550 after taxes for $400. I still took advantage of Prime Day and bought an enclosure for it to keep a constant temperature and keep out the cat hair.
