Figured I would share the discovery Makerbot is selling Stratasys M30(fortus name for the material)P430(dimension name for the material) for $48/1kg spool...confirmed by MSDS on Makerbot.com
Now how is Stratasys going to explain that to the resellers stocking & selling the same material for $280.... and how are those resellers going to explain that to their clients?

How are they going to explain it to resellers and customers? Easy, the DS2433 EEPROM that they use to chip the Stratasys cartridges is discontinued, and they're getting really expensive to procure!

As a Stratasys user, this is fantastic news - who would have thought that you'd be able to get cheap third party filament from Stratasys themselves?

This is the new MSDS for Makerbot ABS filament: [s3.amazonaws.com]
Also note that Coex is now selling Sabic MG94 filament (which is what P430/M30/ABS+ is): [coex3d.com]

Correct, you still need to do the cartridge hack - gnurds.com has a guide: [gnurds.com]
There's also a new Stratasys user forum - doesn't seem to be many people on it, but perhaps some of them have done more with cartridge hacks: [stratasysusers.org]
