How we find 3D printer deals

Curious about how and why we choose the offers we do when hunting down 3D printer deals? Well, we pride ourselves on finding the lowest prices on the best machines, and to do so, we do the following:

🛒 We browse trusted retailers ourselves
We don't rely on tech to do the deal-finding for us; our staff actively trawl retailers and manufacturer store pages to see what jumps out at them. We're fans too, so what excites us is likely to excite our readers as well.

💲 We use price-matching software
Some offers claim to be better than they are, so we always check in with price matching software to make sure you're getting the best possible offer. Our favorite is CamelCamelCamel, and it informs us of everything from average cost to an item's lowest ever price.

🏪 We compare with other retailers
We don't just call it quits when we find a good offer; we make sure we check with other stores to see if someone else has a better discount. That's why you'll find a 'price check' section on each deal here.

Cheap 3D printer FAQ

Where will I find the best cheap 3D printers?

Even though popular retailers such as Amazon and Walmart are great for discounts, I'd always recommend checking the manufacturer stores as well. If you head to Anycubic, Elegoo, Creality, and the rest, you'll often find the steepest savings - particularly on new machines. In fact, they're normally better than any other reduction out there.

How do I know if the cheap 3D printer deals are actually good?

It can be difficult to tell whether an offer is actually good or just 'OK' when it comes to cheap 3D printers, so it's sensible to put in some research before hitting checkout. To find out whether you've struck gold, I'd recommend dropping in on price history sites like Camelcamelcamel. This will tell you everything from lowest ever prices to average cost, allowing you to make a more informed decision rather than being swept up in the moment.

The GamesRadar+ team and I have been hunting bargains for a long time now, and these price-comparison sites have never let us down. It's how we decide what to feature on 3D printer deals roundups like this, actually; if the reduction in question isn't better than the average price for the item, it won't appear here.

Should I wait for Black Friday or Prime Day?

Although the year's major sales events are your best opportunity to secure a bargain, that isn't to say you shouldn't shop at any other time. As is so often the case on this page of cheap 3D printers, you can get record low prices at other times of year if you keep your ear to the ground.

Still, the best discounts do tend to happen after Thanksgiving as part of the Black Friday 3D printer deals. If you want maximum value for money, it's not a bad idea to hang fire in case a better price cut comes along at the end of November.
