The e3v3 looks like they at least corrected the major e3 issues, dual screws and abl out of the box. Looks like they're cheap on Amazon now too, I'd imagine microcenter has them at the same price. I'd avoid any of the "lesser" ender 3 models at this point unless you're really in a money crunch and absolutely love replacing/ upgrading parts. I do know the Sovol SV06 has a lot of followers and they do come highly recommended in roughly the same price point.
If she's mainly going to be making cosplay stuff, make sure the build volume is adequate, or she'll have to learn more advanced techniques for making parts in multiple pieces. I'd also recommend buying ANY Creality printer from someplace you can return/exchange it, their QC is all over the map.
