Would you rather upgrade (2) Anycubic Vyper (new hotend, extruder, etc) or buy a new printer?

I wouldn't look for voron stuff at Microcenter unless you feel like there's no better option. The few times I've seen the stuff they sell it all looks like older outdated versions of the parts.

I got CNC parts from microcenter. They had the chaotic labs kit in a differently branded box for significantly less $$ than available on the web. The QR code for documentation inside the box went straight to chaotic labs and the parts look to be identical.

As with anything, do some level of research before you buy.
