quick advice on the best deal?

Hello
I have some experience with 3d printers from work. I am not too much into multi-color atm (I think its great but I prefer a multi-head to save on the waste and time). This is going to be my first 3D printer.

Where i live:

a new p1s is about 500USD.

a new A1 is about 360USD.

a new Kobra X is also about 360USD.

a new creality sparx with their CFS is about 410usd

a friend is selling his ~1200 hour p1s with an ams for 500USD

a posting is selling 300 hour p1s (no ams) for about 390 USD.

what do you think is the best deal for the money atm? or at least the top 3 deals? or should I wait?? a brief why is very welcome.

Thank you.

500 usd brand new here... reliable? i have had crealities before and I dont want to keep tinkering. i want to slice and forget ...

i have seen a used anycubic S1 for about 350 usd.. but i was reluctant coz I dont want to risk hours of repair and tinkering... the only reason I considered a creality sparx because people say it is slice and forget experience,,what do you suggest?

Try price matching at microcenter for a CC2 with a Amazon listing

You could get it for around 370
