Not surprising as the home 3d printers are so good now. Plus Shapeways got super expensive towards the end.

Bought from them a few times and loved my parts. The one print with warped end plates was reprinted for free.

When I was ready to buy a run of my parts to sell on here, Shapeways changed their pricing and never explained the formula. Over the years, I would ask multiple different ways for their ppl to explain the pricing on their highest detail materials and no one could or would tell me. To me, they brought them on themselves.

I wish I had known, it would be nice to have downloaded all of my files on the site.

Guess I better buy a 3d printer.

I used them to buy F1 driver statues, they were decent quality printed in colored sandstone.

That was 8 years ago or so

shame to see them go

Hey Michael, were you able to save your print files and such before Shapeways shut down? Or did you already have them?

I've bought numerous figures over the years. So many to choose from and they were a decent price. Bought other items too so will miss having them around to find things I need.

I was pretty much abandoning shapeways. Too expensive, and my best sellers will be available - whenever I get to it - directly. I hadn't updated anything in years.

It looks like the website is still working.

Thank you, they were down when I checked the other day.
