I haven't been able to confirm that Q3D is still a business.

I base my statement on the fact that q3dprinter.com (the store site, that will gladly take your money, if you give it a credit card) is still up and running just fine.  It is only the link to their support site that gives the 500 Server Error.

Now, you peaked my curiosity.  A quick Google search involving QU-BD and BBB reveals that the Better Business Bureau gives QU-BD an "F" rating.  The complaints go all the way back to their Kickstarter campaign, where they were trying to raise $9,000.00 and ended up raising $400,000.00.  You would think that, with all that extra money, they could have afforded to hire one or two people as a support staff.

They do **not** report the company as being out of business.  Although, I believe that they only do that for a year after the business closes.  So, QU-BD could be out of business for more than a year, and BBB may not have it on their website.

They also list a phone number for QU-BD, if anybody wants to waste the time calling it.  Although if still in business, and actually answering their phone, the conversation would be hilarious:

"Yeah, we're just calling to see if you guys still exist.  Oh, you do?  We were kind of wondering as you have closed off every support contact that you guys have.  Yes, I click there and get the same 500 Server Error that I have been getting for the last six months.  No, somebody else bought that domain name, you don't run that forum anymore."

Interestingly enough, there are ZERO reviews for the company out on bbb.org.  Hm.  Maybe we should fix that.

The sad thing is:  I got no response to my issue.  Even an E-mail stating that they could not ship the parts, but here are the *.dxf files (to have the parts made locally) could have "resolved" the issue.  But, they did not even try.


I wonder what it would take to have the "authorities" shut down the q3dprinter.com site as "fraudulent?"  Maye that would get someone's attention
