I thought 3dhubs was taking the hit… wasn’t that originally how it was explained? earning barely more than half the order total is quite a hit… especially if your running barely above costs.
I know the feeling. I get mostly student orders where i am located and feel the burn. I ofcourse want to support the students but it comes to about 34% after 3d hubs takes their cut. I would be fine loosing 25% if it includes the 3d hubs fee because the hub hit is much larger than 3dhubs hit.
This is my first student order on the platform (I mostly work with Goverment, inventors and other adults) and I promoted it a bunch at my school and I think I would be much more incentivized if 3D Hubs brought down their service fee across all orders once you give discounts to students which I saw was a suggestion above which would definitely make me stay in the program. I also want to add that when students need to bring something they need to print a lot which means that Hubs now have a Huge hit every time when it comes to students
It would be great if we could set our own student discount-- or apply it to an add-on service, or even just cap it like 25% up to $10 off. I started with the discount but after getting slammed with student orders I’ve had to turn it off. 25% off is just too much.
I believe that students must have discounts everywhere because students have little money because they have a small scholarship. Companies that are recommended by the site - https://essayexplorer.com/blog/how-to-do-a-close-reading/ 3 - have special discounts for students on writing papers and writing various reviews. These companies offer not only cheap services but also various discounts and promotions. Also on the site, you can read about close reading works!
