Please note: I bought this printer 1 week ago from someone who knew what they were doing. I however am a noob at 3D printing and I cannot figure this thing out. I suggest only intermediate / advanced users purchase this printer.
All the upgrades:
- Raspberry pi 3 with Octoprint
- BL Touch V3.1 Auto Bed Leveling Sensor
- Filament Runout Sensor
- 420p Mounted Camera
All the Extras:
- 10x rolls of filament (most of them still have 95 to 70% of the roll left, 1 is still sealed, and a few are at 60 - 40%) Mostly PLA, I think there's an ABS
- 1 extra glass bed
- 2 extra magnetic beds
- 1 spare, sealed ender 5 hotend assembly
- bunch of extra small loose-ends, like the end connections of the filament feeding tube, etc
Item: Creality Ender 5 + extras
Age: 2 years
Price: R6500
Payment Method Accepted: Cash / Immediate EFT / GeoPay
Warranty: n/a selling as is
Warranty Holder: n/a
Packaging: none
Condition: Excellent
Location: Centurion
Reason: So why am I selling it after having it for 1 week? Here's why: I cannot figure the leveling out. Z-offsets, BLtouch, Base Meshes, blah blah, it's too complicated for me. I've managed to get a couple of good first layers and prints but I don't have the patience anymore to fine tune the Auto Leveling, so I'm selling it to get a simpler one where I can do manual bed-leveling. More advanced users could probably fine-tune the BLtouch and related firmware, but I don't want to play with that.
Shipping: Not a good idea

*This is not the PRO version, I can't find a link for the bas model. Pro version is essentially the same though, the difference is that the Pro has a silent motherboard and a metal extruder
FYI
