What makes you think manufacturing partners aren’t already selected? Would it make sense to send emails to non-selected hubs telling them they were not selected and would be removed from their platform, risking all the issues with people trying to take customers away from 3d hubs, only to still be looking at hubs and see if they can get in the green before Oct 1st? This is starting to sound like a conspiracy theory.
Get your facts straight before saying this is a consipracy theory. 3D Hubs DID send an email out to people that would be kicked off the site. I present exhibit A -https://drive.google.com/file/d/1tBYMn4AhatU1BHcWVo11xaVROXbqBo48/view 18
You misunderstood me. The conspiracy is that hubs still have a chance to be selected to be manufacturing partners. If you got the email you’re gone. Even you get 100% metrics now, it’s done.
Amusingly, I am still getting orders in my queue. Admins are also manually declining and immediately archiving them.
Really?
So 3DHubs admins are removing those orders from your queue?
I have not seen that on my hub. I have got a few orders overnight before where the customer requested to cancel immediately after and they archived it before I got up. Those were typically because they didn’t get the hub they thought they were, or misunderstood the site and just wanted a price estimate and not place an order.
I have also seen where a completed order from months ago somehow gets moved to top of my list as a recent order. Maybe same thing happening with your archive page. Look and make sure it isnt an old archived order.
It’s official. 3D Hub BREXIT is here. We are OUT. So much time and effort thrown away. ONLY 24 hubs left in the whole U.K and only 8 pages of hubs left globally. Is 3D printing REALLY in big demand as predicted? We can only wait and see!!! Until then, peace out

Its a sad day. No more 3DHubs. I feel bad about it and had a long talk with my boss at work today. He asked me what can you do to solve this issue not receiving any orders anymore. Building a new platform for all 3d printer users without letting them down (sorry, thats how it feels). He offered me one of his domainnames…3dprinterpoint.com and said: you can have it and build your own as we stop using it. Start a kickstarter campaign, team up with others as there will be more people with the same problem as you have. Turn a problem into a challenge…Who will help me 
Nevertheless,thank you 3DHubs for the great opportunity and service!
Hey, you can join this site. There is allreay a discussion how now further.
Just finished looking at this myself. Within 100 miles of me, there were over 80 hubs doing FDM, including flexibles, exotics like steel and wood and PVA support etc. Now there is one. ONE HUB. They do PLA, ABS and PETG but no other types. Considering most of my orders in the last 10 months have been for flexibles, (fulfilled by 3D Hubs orders too!) this is a major gap in the market, locally at least.
I’m starting my own website in order to keep going, which is a good thing, but it is disappointing being ejected from the place I started.
I just got a call from a nice older sounding woman who happily asked me if I got the email about the changes to 3D hubs yesterday. I told her, “No, but I did get one several weeks ago about being thrown off October 1st.” Her reply, “ Oh, you’re a supplier?” Me, “I was a supplier and I was a customer.” She said she was sorry and did not know how those decisions were made, we talked a little longer and I finally told her, “I know this is uncomfortable, i’ lol let you off the hook and we can end the conversation.” She thanked me and wished me good luck. We hung up. She was a very nice person on the phone, put in a tough spot. I guess her call list did not show people who were both customers and suppliers. Oops.
I’m already there, from the initial and second times you sent the link 
It looks like the ability to manually choose a hub has now been removed from the order page in the USA. Even though the new system is not implemented yet.
Not only are they shutting us all down they are attempting to stop us from continuing to communicate with long time hub customers that wish to follow the private hub instead of use the “manufacturing partners “ scheme
www.xyzfabs.com 23 is a free alternative too. There are 60 listed there right now. Many cities are not occupied yet 
How are they doing that? All past orders are still available and I’m getting contact details from there.
Yes xyzfabs is actively developed and any “outdated” things can be addressed quickly. What are the outdated things?
I was communicating with a customer who is not interested in the new program, tried to give my email adress and they redacted it repeatedly, fortunately my customer got it in the end but they try to stop us
But trying to prevent your customers to communicate with you (especially your customers from the hub days), and force them to use 3DHubs new platform, comes down to commercial abuse and stealing your customers. That fact on its own can be used to file an official complaint with your national competition regulator, or with the EC in Europe.
It is borderline illegal in most countries to have a practice like this
They are not “your” customers, they are 3dhubs. I am pretty sure this was agreed to in a document you signed off on when joining.
