If you use crap filament, you're going to get crap results. Quit blaming the hot end.

I just got two rolls from a place off eBay (out of New York).
I can't figure out the red ABS (kinda transparent) filament. Keeps gobbing up. I read someone else using this type of filament had to extrude it at really high temps.
Got some yellow PLA from them too. Lots of popping and odd extrusions.
I believe that you definately get what you pay for, so buyer beware!

Geneb does in fact have a very valid and excellent point.
I have only ever used ultimachine, cnc me filament or expensive newzeland filaments, could be why I have not had stock hotend jamming occur.
