I am writing an email tonight expressing my concerns and rights for a full refund. If anyone would like to be cc’d into the email please provide your email in the comments!!

Barry_Finn · 2016-09-28T18:32:34.000Z

CC ME In Please

I ha a phone call last night asking if I would like to continue the subscription? My reply was that I was not impressed with the printer so no thankyou.

While this was happening my CTC 3D Printer was running. Ho By the way Eagle Moss it cost less than what you sold us, lager bed, better software, and it works.

All I can Say is if only I knew in the first instance.

If a refund is not going to happen I will salvage what I can out of the printer and scrap the rest.

Ive sent a draft to the other 2 guys for comment, I can do the same for you if you wish before i send it. i will need your email address Kevin, if you want to be CC’d in!

I will add that the email mentions this thread but does not address the fact that you guys want a refund too. If you want me to add a paragraph about you wanting a refund too, please let me know and perhaps write it in yourself so i get it right.

Jacob_Powell · 2016-09-28T19:19:13.000Z

Email sent. please comment.

IT looks like you have a lot of the issues I have. One thing I have noticed is the bed mount to the Z Axis is bent by about 4mm.

The only way I could get the calibration done was to adjust the Z Axis to as close to the bed a poss the mess around with the bed adjustment screws which took an age.

Also in the magazine they mention the feeler is 0.2mm, wrong its 0.1 which is the correct distance from the bed.

This is also the same thickness as a sheet of a4 paper.

Very nicely put. The only extra parts that may be added was the fact that initially stated that the collection would be completed in 90 issues which has now been extended and also that there are a growing number looking to be reimbursed. Barry

I think we all want a refund to be honest,totally dissatisfied with both the printer and the software.I have just emailed the geeks and told them if they don’t rectify the problem then I want a full refund

Hi Jacob,

Please Carbon Copy me in if it will help. I am andygreyrider@googlemail.com

I have just bought an Ormerod 2 secondhand for just under £200.

I have also bought some genuine Arduino kits to go with my Make: Electronics book.

I am going to be building my own style 3D printer and will get a full refund from Eaglemoss via County Court action.

I will keep you updated. As of now, I am getting daily emails from Dbfactory et al Eaglemoss but, I have been advised to ignore them and since I sent my letter of notice to pursue, they will not get another correspondence. At last, I think they are in fear of County Court action.

With a judgement against them, I intend to get my subscription value to ruin their reputation. I think you will be amused that, I am pursuing compensation too.

Kind Regards

Andrew

Jacob_Powell · 2016-09-29T07:05:11.000Z

Fantastic Andrew. Well I wrote a long email last night detailing why I wanted a refund and highlighting the consumer rights act. This is my 2nd attempt at asking for a refund as the first was shoo’d off with a 30 day returns policy. I’m expecting them to repeat their method and ignore my request for a refund. So on that note, if you don’t mind, I would also like to to see you notice to pursue as this will have to be my next step too!. I have sent you an email to the address you have provided. Thank you for your input!

Fawksey · 2016-09-29T14:57:08.000Z

Yes we’ll join the refund group.

So frustrating!

Graham_Tanfield · 2016-09-29T15:05:35.000Z

I think we all want to join the refund group .2 days to load the software for it still not to work is ridiculous!

Fawksey · 2016-09-29T15:18:49.000Z

Hi G,

What problems are you having. I just started a print and it stalls for no reason after a few seconds/minutes.

For info our build is shown in the attached. The base cover is off because I anticipate that a new board is required - can’t update the firmware on this one.

Out of interest I bought a RepRap DIY from china (£200 quid’ish) as my first 3d printer earlier this year. It looks like something from Robot Wars (after the battle that is) but it trumps all over the V3 for print size, ease of construction and software compatibility.

Hi Fawksey,

I was also diagnosed with a faulty board.

It took them around 6 weeks to send out a replacement, which solved the original problem.

Unfortunately the new board came ready with its own problems which differ to the original problems!
