You modify the wiki page, which requires you create an email account. AFAIK there isn't a prohibition for a retailer to add their own name to the list or modifying other wiki pages. Blatently self serving modifications aside from adding to a supplier list would be frowned on for obvious reasons.
And echoing madmike8, I too purchased a majority of my printer's non-printed parts from Folger Technologies/sidewinderinc and was very happy with the price, quality, and prompt shipping.

I am curious as to how we can get listed as a supplier here and on the reprap wiki.

US supplier is just a fancy way of saying Chinese importer. You people sicken me.

Just a tip though, using "tho" does not have the most professional appeal to it.].[/quote
Thanks for the input. I was using my phone didn't even notice the grammatical error there. I do appreciate you taking the time to comment. The Filament pricing was done that way because when I initially setup the web-store I had no filament in stock, however we were having issues getting the stock to show up correctly so I just put an astronomical price to steer people away from purchasing. Again thanks for taking the time to read and chime in!
Also I noticed on the wiki there is a really small amount of information on the all metal style hot ends, is there a reason for this or just not a lot people using them right now?

Get off your high horse. People expect their $Country-based suppplier to be based in $Country, not necessarily that THEIR suppliers were also $Country-based. I don't particularly care where THEY source their parts from as long as it meets my quality requirement. Rather I prefer that it's not going to take me forever and a day to get to me and there's someone I can contact if there is a problem. People still call GM, Ford, and Chrysler US automobile suppliers despite a good number of components were made, or final assembly was performed, outside the country.Quote

I. I also ordered some ABS filament from Dan too, but it isn't very good at all, however it was the cheapest stuff on eBay, and I suppose at about $18 a roll, you get what you pay for! Overall, I am pretty pleased with FoldgerTech, and would like to see him involved in the RepRap community.

That's the problem with importing filament from China. When you get a bad batch, it costs more to ship it back. So you're stuck with it. You should've just ate the cost instead of pawning it off on unsuspecting clients. But, that's what you get with this kind of people. You're a true capitalist Danny.

Dan: something about this forum is our resident troll, currently known as pbrstreetgang originally ohioplastics, although that'll change again once we ban him for um-teenth time don't let him ruffle your feathers it's not worth the time and stress he's having trouble getting the what the idea of being banned actually means, he's a bit of a living contradiction with a bit of a twisted view on what capitalism should be , to give you and idea of his hidden motive he's also the producer of the jhead-lite and also advertises on this forum and on the wiki
he was originally banned because he became abusive and started trolling the forum
