- bulk means from china? shipping costs will be your biggest issue, and then quality where are you based? Alibaba is your best starting point

- I was thinking a bunch of us would band together and then approach a reputable supplier. Like someone already selling on amazon.
Maybe if we all commit to buying N rolls, the supplier would offer a bulk discount?

- A good idea, @tjones. Do you have any particular manufacturers in mind?

- i second intservo. william the owner is great and already has super prices even without a discount but if you order bulk he will give you an even better deal. in the next month or two he is supposed to be having a big promotion and dropping pla prices down.

- U would definitely look at microcenter's filament before you make a bulk order. It is very cheap and the rolls that I have had have all printed well (PLA). If we can get the price down to maybe $15 a kg I might be interested.

- Yupp, Microcenter's Inland brand is actually the same ESUN that defcon3d is referring to. I've been through at least 20 reels of their stuff. A bit brittle in filament form and needs to be printed at 220 for the layers to stick. Solid stuff and can't beat $15/kg. I haven't contacted ESUN directly to compare pricing but I can only imagine how large of a quantity I would need to purchase directly to get below $15/kg shipped.

- As 3D printing is the latest technology. So most of the people have no idea about the complete usage of it. You can check https://uk.bestessays.com/write-my-assignment.html and get techniques to manage their work. Glad to see that they’re making efforts to provide each and every information was related to the 3D printing so that we can easily complete our task in an effective and efficient way.
Depends if the price is right.
