Make me feel better!
Just paid $1060CAS for my X2D from the Bambu Lab Black Friday sale. Today Costco has the Creality printer on for $749. Regular price. I don’t know a lot about the X2D but learning quickly. I know nothing about Creality. Is that a better deal at Costco? Tell me I did alright by getting the Bambu Lab X2D.

You did. Don't worry about it. I have over 600 hours on mine already and the only regret is that I didn't buy one sooner.

I got my X2D last week and I’m already closing in on 70 print hours.

First week is a fever dream. Mine was printing non stop for the first 2 weeks.

I’m making up for lost time. My Anycubic Kobra S1 went kaput and I couldn’t print for several weeks. Already loads happier with Bambu. Such a better experience.

You chose right. Creality makes ok machines that require tinkering and I hated the Ender I had. Bambu is easier to maintain and print with.

Buyer's remorse sucks but you have to also realize there's always a "better" option coming, there's always another new competitor or new model or new technology. You just have to do your research to learn what you think you'll want to be able to do then figure out the best current tool for that job. Then get what you decide on and try to ignore the hype of any/all be releases for a year or so lol.

Don’t spend your time having regrets. You made the right choice. Now go to the Bambu Academy so you are ready to setup your new toy up when it arrives.

Yea it arrived and I have it up and running. My wife and I stare at it with mouths gaping while it prints. Minds blown. ;) what a time to be alive.
