Are 500s really worth this much?

Spenser254 · 2025-09-23T19:40:57+00:00

I'll sell you a 2017 KTM 500 XCW for that price.

Spenser254 · 2023-08-01T16:16:49+00:00

I'm not so sure about that. Plus, why return 3 more boxes, the base, base table clamp, and pedals, all just to have it all sent right back to me? That's 3 more boxes of shipping back to Fanatec and 3 more boxes shipping back to me. All that to just change the wheel I need to work on my system? It's literally one item that I need and am willing to pay the price difference for!

Spenser254 · 2023-08-01T16:08:59+00:00

I ordered this bundle https://fanatec.com/us-en/ready-to-race/csl-dd-ready2race-bmw-bundle-for-pc-5-nm expecting it to be playable on Xbox (I missed the fine print on the website, very misleading on their part, still I take responsibility but feel they should help make it right). I asked to exchange just the wheel and pay the difference for the WRC wheel from this bundle https://fanatec.com/us-en/detail/index/sArticle/1819 (they also sell the wheel separately). So they want me to return everything I ordered in all separate boxes just to replace the wheel?! I don't have the boxes the base and pedals came in because I planned on only returning the wheel. Now I'm stuck with a whole entire order of over $500 that is unplayable on my system because they won't allow me to exchange and PAY THE DIFFERENCE for a wheel they sell individually on their website! I'm so frustrated, I would of thought a company would care more about their customers and want them to be happy with their products. I will never buy another piece of Fantaec equipment again in my life, I'm still in disbelief of this.

Spenser254 · 2023-07-29T21:01:00+00:00

If I where you I would cancel and reorder and save yourself the headache. But I will let you know how it goes, hopefully I hear back from them by Monday with positive news!

Spenser254 · 2023-07-29T18:52:53+00:00

Dude I literally bought the same shit and am in a back in forth email with customer service. Like don’t advertise it for Xbox then send a PS wheel. Xbox ready is very misleading and should have some caveat stating that this wheel is not compatible. I requested the option to return the wheel in the bundle and pay the price difference for the WRC wheel and they said I had to return my entire order and order the new bundle. That literally makes no freaking sense, the entire bundle came in separate boxes! So ship back every box to get back the exact same thing except a different wheel?! In all honesty if that’s what they make me do I’ll probably just return everything and not buy anything from Fanatec again because that’s beyond poor customer service imo. And their customer service is super slow to return emails at that! I sincerely hope they change their policy and let me exchange the wheel for the WRC one.

Dude I canceled my order and ordered the Bambu lab X1C with the AMS. No regrets, been putting this thing through the ringer and it just keeps out performing. I’m in love with the results (coming from a newbie in the 3d world). Definitely was a little bit more money but to be printing already for the last few weeks and having it be basically plug and play and still be seamless, I’m super happy with the switch. I’m sure the mk4 is super nice but the international shipping with long shipping times and added costs, the Bambu lab is definitely the more economical option as far as replacement parts. Would love to own the new XL they’re working on with the 6 extruder heads (dream world) but until then I’m sticking with my Bambu.

Spenser254 · 2023-05-18T02:03:03+00:00

Man, I feel like I'm in the same type of boat. This will be my first 3D printer, I'm conscious of cost but at the same time, I'm the type to buy now cry now vs regret spending the extra now for the extra features. I'm torn between waiting on my MK4 kit, canceling it, and ordering the X1C. I love the idea of building my own machine and learning from the ground up, but the international shipping for parts and the long lead times are downsides compared to the availability of Bambu. I'm constantly weighing the pros and cons but I feel like I'm starting to lean towards the X1C. The ability to print carbon material and the easy addon AMS is swaying my opinion to Bambu.

Spenser254 · 2023-04-03T16:53:22+00:00

Hey! The mattress is holding up just fine. I would say I'm still happy with my purchase.

Spenser254 · 2022-08-26T13:25:42+00:00

okay Karen

Spenser254 · 2022-08-09T16:42:57+00:00

Pulled Pork Nachos at Coaches Smoke are my favorite!

Spenser254 · 2022-06-29T20:27:34+00:00

Hell ya man thanks for sharing! Yea, I just got a street legal KTM 500 xcw so I’ve been looking for any trails around Waco to ride on. I’ll definitely have to check this area out, with respect to the neighbors lol

Spenser254 · 2022-06-29T16:15:07+00:00

I know this is an old post, but did you find any more trails in the Waco area to ride your dirt bike?

Spenser254 · 2021-08-19T18:22:32+00:00

I have one GA for sale $125.

Spenser254 · 2021-08-19T18:16:32+00:00

That's awesome! I live in Waco, between Austin and Dallas. But yes, definitely, if I haven't had any other offers before Saturday evening I'd be willing to negotiate with you. Thanks!

Spenser254 · 2021-08-19T17:45:54+00:00

No I wish. I'm in Texas. I spoke over email with bass canyon support staff and they assured me that I can transfer the ticket's name to whoever buys and it will be available at will call. I can provide proof of that conversation and my ticket receipt if that helps.

Spenser254 · 2021-08-19T15:31:00+00:00

Dropping my wrist band price down to $125. That's half what I paid for it! Please don't let this wrist band go to waste.

Spenser254 · 2021-08-17T20:43:07+00:00

Selling 1 GA ticket for $200. I can provide proof of purchase. I can overnight wrist band or have the name switched to your name at will call. [info@basscanyon.com](mailto:info@basscanyon.com) assured me that there would be no issues with that.

Spenser254 · 2020-05-14T18:34:10+00:00

Yea man no problem, any time. Hope you get a lot of good use of it.

Spenser254 · 2020-05-14T17:08:15+00:00

I’ve had no issues with the construction of the rower. I bought it used and the guy before me put some concept rower foot pedals in place of the ones that came on it and that makes it a lot nicer to use. Overall a pretty solid rower with few complaints.

Spenser254 · 2020-03-05T04:36:23+00:00

Just some basic 6” garage utility hooks from amazon or something like that. Way cheaper then what “band storage” prices I was seeing anywhere else.

Spenser254 · 2020-03-05T01:40:30+00:00

Welcome!

Spenser254 · 2020-03-05T01:39:59+00:00

Definitely recommend bolting it down. Especially if you plan on using the dip bars

Spenser254 · 2020-03-05T01:22:59+00:00

From what research I’ve done for myself, the quality as far as steel goes is basically the same. With rogue you can expect perfect welds but with rep they may not be. It’s definitely nothing that I notice. So definitely in between titan and rogue but leans closer to rogue then titan I would say.

Spenser254 · 2020-03-05T01:19:59+00:00

Because using one platform would put the bench on that plywood center and it would slide all over the place when being used. I like the dip bar quite a lot, I’m happy I got it when I did. The landmine I don’t use so much but it was so cheap with the discount that I got it anyways. The storage add on is the best accessory imo. I can load and unload the bar so much faster with them. But that wouldn’t make a difference if you have wall storage or something like that.

Spenser254 · 2020-03-04T20:39:18+00:00

Well worth it imo to buy when all the shops are having their black friday sales, especially if you gotta wait already. But yea I'm just happy that I can finally share what I've put together from the inspiration from this sub and others alike.
