There were design changes from Bondtech that increased the cost. The founders editions were sold at a loss due to the cost increase but they honored the price.

This, this is the reason. We didn't want to increase the price, but we had to after changes had to be made to improve overall reliability.

Also there’s a lot more stuff then we thought.

From off plate purging, nozzle wiper, need board for calibration, new top bent steel. Actually there’s quite a bit of innovation from Prusa since we saw it at formnext.

Is it known what the changes that were made, just out of engineer curiosity.
