I have found a creality ender 3 pro on facebook marketplace for $75, would this be a good 3d printer at a good price for my first time?

I probably wouldn’t be printing too often, but I have a number of ideas for things that I’d like to try making.

First you must answer the most important question:

Do you want working on your 3D printer as a hobby or 3d printing as a hobby? Both are perfectly valid, it’s just about personal preference.
