It's hard to say what the impact of the choice is without seeing what else is available, though.
Jumping on this offer may, or may not, be in a team's best interest. As Madison pointed out, it's a gamble. Every team needs to weigh the cost of getting a 3D printer over other needs this coming season may present.

I'm thrilled that the offer has been made, but..... that doesn't necessarily mean we are going to jump on it.
