How this works · Affiliate disclosure

How a deal gets recorded and how our page is funded.

3DPTD Deals tracks the price of 70+ 3D printers and scanners and shows you the history beside the price, so you can judge a deal yourself. When you buy through a link here, the store may pay a commission. It costs you nothing and it does not decide what is shown.

1 · What counts as a deal here, and who decides

A deal is created when our system scans an official store against our stored list price and detects a drop. We verify the sale, often with a human check, and publish it as soon as we know it is a real deal you can get. The chart on each product page shows the price history so you can judge it yourself. A deal with an end date comes off the site automatically when it ends, or as soon as we detect the price change back.

Deals are sorted by freshness and the size of the discount. Nobody can pay to be placed, and nothing is featured because it pays more. The card at the top of the home page is marked either as a personal pick by Anton from 3D Print Tech Design, or the biggest discount live in your region right now.

2 · Where the prices come from

Currently over 70 products tracked since early 2026, and growing

We scan the manufacturer's store directly

Official prices, promo codes and deals come from the manufacturer's own store, never from marketplace resellers, so fake deals from less reputable sellers can't sneak in. When a brand announces a sale to us directly, we check it against the store too. Prices are checked every other day, less often for some products.

Every price we record is kept

Every price we record is stored, building a detailed history for each product. Did a brand raise prices right before Black Friday? We would know.

A deal is a drop against that record

A deal is only listed when a scan finds the store price below our stored list price. The history on the product page shows whether it is also low for this machine.

Prices are scanned from the manufacturer's store and updated regularly. Because local tax is applied based on your location, the exact price you see can sometimes be lower or higher than shown. Always check the final price in the store before you buy.

3 · How the site is paid, and why it matters

Run by one person. Paid for by income from the YouTube channel and by affiliate commissions where they apply. No paid placements.

What happens when you click Get deal

You click Get deal

The link leaves 3dp.sale.
Many links pass through Geni.us

A link tool that sends you to the store for your region and helps us organise traffic. It is not an affiliate programme.
The affiliate programme records the visit

Sometimes these links send you through an affiliate programme, like Amazon Associates, Awin, Impact or a manufacturer's programme such as Prusa, to the product page where the deal is.
If you buy inside the tracking window, the store pays a commission

A small percentage, paid by the store or manufacturer. The price you pay is the same as if you had visited the store directly. The store shares a little of its revenue with us, and that is what pays for running the site.

What happens to your data is on the privacy page.

3DPTD Deals is a participant in the Amazon Associates Program. As an Amazon Associate we earn from qualifying purchases.

Does the commission decide what is shown?

No, and this is critical for us. Deals are sorted by freshness and the size of the discount. Nobody can pay to be placed somewhere, and nothing is featured because a manufacturer paid us.

The card at the top of the home page is either picked by Anton, or the biggest discount live in your region right now.

Some products and links are not in an affiliate programme and carry no commission at all. They are on the site because they are relevant to you, not for our profit.

Please reach out if you have a suggestion for a brand or product to start tracking.

Tracking a product pays too, indirectly

When you track a product, we can see anonymously which ones the most people are waiting for. That count, with no email addresses attached, is what we take to a manufacturer to negotiate a discount code for our community.

4 · Reading a deal card

An example deal. Every deal on the site uses the same parts.

A: Region. Every price is recorded per region. Switch region in the top right to see deals and prices in your region.
B: Price and discount. The price is what the store charges now. The struck price is what it normally costs, and the percentage is the difference.
C: Price history. One bar per day for the last 30 days, up to a year on the product page when you click "See all history". Faded bars are at list price and olive is when the price went above list. Blue is a deal below list price, and green is the lowest price in the chart.
D: Get deal. Takes you to the store. This is the link that may pay a commission, explained in section 3.
E: Track this. Confirm your email and you get notified the next time this product is on sale. No account, and you can easily control what emails you get.
F: Check price on Amazon. Sometimes a second option is available to buy the product if you prefer Amazon. Usually this is an affiliate link, but deals and promo codes are read from the manufacturer's store, so there may be differences.

5 · Promo codes

Our own promo codes

Our reach as a channel, plus knowing which products you track, sometimes lets us negotiate a unique code for our community. Where one of those pays us a commission, it works like the links above and costs you nothing extra.

Manufacturer and community codes

Codes a brand publishes or that you send us. We note the source, and whether a code is limited or has terms or restrictions, whenever we can.
