The RepRap II: Mendel is open source hardware and so there is not a single place to buy it but rather many options. This competition is encouraged so that prices become lower over time. Bellow is a list of places to find Mendel parts and/or kits.

Note: it is not necessary to purchase a kit, many RepStraps are available that can be easily assembled with tools you may already own.
