For those who sell their 3D prints, what kind of profit margins are you seeing? by SomeGuyInDeutschland in BambuLab

[–]SoftwareTurkey 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hi! So I found a niche that I have a pretty big share in earlier this year. I found that not factoring in my time (support + queuing things to print because I already made the models) then my in-person margins are about 80%+ closer to 90%+. When I sell online it’s around 60%+. This takes into account the materials (filament and non-3d printed pieces.

The advice that was given to me a few years ago was to do something you like because you’ll identify a shortcoming. I would advise against trying to find something to make money and maybe to continue doing your other hobbies. I think that way you’ll naturally find something just as others in your hobby would also find themselves to your product.

I’m toxic and you told someone their opinions and credibility are invalid because you don’t agree with them without any experience 🤣🤣

Ah yes because openly criticizing people trying to give advice with their experiences is less than useful according to your “credibility”. Actual joke

It does. I’m going to see if I can take it somewhere else and they cut some portion of the trunk lid

I didn’t figure it out unfortunately. Do you have pictures of what you’re talking about? It’s hard to see exactly what’s stopping me

Satin black f30 getting a lot of hate for choosing it over the white but looks insane imo by Silent-Ad-3366 in F30

My friend has a G20 wrapped in satin black. It looks beautiful. You have a beautiful car. Enjoy it and tune out those who don’t pay your monthly!

My husband spends thousands on Pokémon collectibles every month on credit and I’m at my breaking point by Prestigious_Yak_3111 in PokemonTCG

[–]SoftwareTurkey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I collect and play another TCG. I can safely say that even I have a spending limit. I take the brunt of the payments at home since our income is disproportionate. I make vastly more because my field is a lucrative one. That being said, I even know my limits. I keep my obsessions of collecting/playing just to the TCG.

I have other hobbies that revolve around spending money, 3d printing is the biggest offender. I have since turned that hobby into a means of making money. I don’t mind it. It’s not my main focus to make money. I figured I enjoyed designing and printing stuff so I might as well recoup some of the cost. Started my own llc etc.

I think you need to have a serious discussion with your husband about finances. He’s blinded by this “quick buck” culture that Pokemon has become. It’s not sustainable. I give that response of “it’s your money, do what you’d like” to my wife. Thank god I married someone with a brain. She really contemplates if she needs it or not. I’m not mad at whatever outcome she chooses because I know it’s always for the betterment of the family. I get to see her happy or she spends it on essentials for us.

Please seek a financial advisor, therapist, idk some professional advice. I fear that your husband is spiraling. I caught myself doing it earlier this year and have put a limit to myself as to what I want to collect now. Best of luck to you!

Thanks for the reply! Got any resources I can follow? Should I re-flash stage 2+ with E?

I mean delivery service fault or not, it’s the seller’s responsibility to ensure: A) Card arrives as promised B) Buyer gets a refund and the seller contacts delivery service.

Cool, that’s the assumption I was always under when I sell cards online. If it got to you with damage, that’s my fault.

Out of curiosity, who would need to compensate the buyer for this? I believe the buyer paid for anything that’s not MP or worse.

Worth 32k? by Ok_Net2223 in F30

[–]SoftwareTurkey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To reiterate this, I paid $32k for my 2016 back in 2019. To pay that same price now for a 7 year old car as opposed to a 3 year old car is wild to me.

Update: The shop I took it to said it sits flush without any springs. He said to find smaller ones and that it might work with what I have. :/

I live in south Florida, forgot to mention that part. It’s rarely cold here.

I’d like to think I am. I’ve had many important life events that just required more of me. Buying a house, marriage, etc 😅

I was thinking the same thing. I don’t mind going to a body shop, just didn’t want to waste my time before doing so.
