What Was The REAL Cost Of Your 3D Printer?

We're all tinkerers. Some of us are cheap, like me. I got a JG Aurora A5S for $500CAD with some accessories and filament as a sale deal and I was pretty happy with it. But all the fans are trash, the grease is garbage and the bearings are cheap. I'm 9 months in and I'm about to order an overhaul kit. Maybe your story is different and you bought a higher quality, more expensive printer, but then spent hundreds more on mods. So let's hear it: how much did it really cost you to get that sick, dialed-in parts factory vs the base price of the machine?
