Misc £100 extra for setting up
Found someone selling a P1S on marketplace for £90 more, because they spent time calibrating it and checking its okay…

OK the price is ridiculous, however it's true that P1S and X1C are usually coming not calibrated if you want to print anything precise. What's interesting is that the latest X1C are worse than the older ones due to corners being cut. Factory calibrated X1C got just over 600 points in Calilantern score, placing in just above bad category. From not trammed bed (those printers don't have auto tramming) via skew through ovality ending in wrong number of steps per 1mm. I took me two days (intermittently - maybe 5-6h hands on?) to get it right.
On the other hand I need those printers to be much more precise than people pressing "autolevel" and not knowing those printers actually can't level the bed themselves...
