As far as ive ever known makergeeks has guaranteed filament as well as free shipping. If you're not happy I would email as they have been very helpful to me.

I may need to... this stuff just turns to snot in acetone.... more than 24 hours and just a glob in a jar.]]> Anonymous User General Sat, 15 Mar 2014 01:52:41 -0400 https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?1,323018,325067#msg-325067 Re: Filament question https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?1,323018,325067#msg-325067 REPRAP SQUAD General Fri, 14 Mar 2014 19:57:49 -0400 https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?1,323018,324921#msg-324921 Re: Filament question https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?1,323018,324921#msg-324921
Glass/kapton/ABS juice was the best of the bunch but still had some lift...]]> Anonymous User General Fri, 14 Mar 2014 14:18:31 -0400 https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?1,323018,324616#msg-324616 Re: Filament question https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?1,323018,324616#msg-324616

I am trying to push a 1.75mm crooked filament through a 2mm PTFE tube to guide it to the hotend and the force to do that will increase exponentially with the length of the tube.
Yeah, that filament will be kind of useless in a bowden setup. Where did you buy it from? Have you asked for a replacement?

China :)) For the price I paid I won't do that. The shipment was double the price of the PLA. It's ok, i'll make it work.]]> Dizzydbd General Fri, 14 Mar 2014 04:22:28 -0400 https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?1,323018,323720#msg-323720 Re: Filament question https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?1,323018,323720#msg-323720
