Anyone tried Fairwagon?

Post by BenTheRighteous »

I found this while browsing craigslist - http://fairwagon.com/ - I have no idea what the quality is like, but they offer PLA and ABS for $16 and free shipping on top of that. Seems too good to be true, it's probably the cheesiest filament there is.

At any rate, I'm just curious if anyone's tried it and what their impressions were.

Hi!

It is true! We are a bulk wholesaler with free shipping in the lower 48.

Thank you for the positive attention!

Maybe not cheesiest filament, but probably the cheapest lol

Whooooooooops! :oops: :lol:

Guess I'd better be more careful with my prejudice, never know who's watching... sorry about that! :mrgreen:

I suppose now it's only fair that I get some and review it just to set the record straight. :roll:

D'oh! 5 spool minimum order. Guess that's what they mean by bulk. Well, that review's gonna have to wait a bit until I work through some of the other filament I already splurged on during Black Friday... :P

Just placed a 6 spool order to Fairwagon for the primary purpose of testing the quality, will let you know my results.

I agree with that, the selection is sparse.

Any updates on this Eagle? Have you tried printing with this filament yet?

Actually I did receive the filament about a week ago, I plan on finishing up some other things I have going on
then I will test this filament. Probably have a review in about 2 weeks.
