P6GSU1OFK8

SUNLU PLA filament, including PLA+, PLA Matte, and PLA HS. Minimum purchase of 6 spools. Says for Australia only - but free shipping to NZ. About the cheapest per KG filament that you can get - and Sunlu stuff prints well. Lots of colour choices.

Says $18 per kilo. Use code P6GSU1OFK8 at checkout to bring the price down further to $17.50.

I've purchased from this store often - ships from Australia, and typically takes around 7-10 days to arrive.

PS: don't bother trying to add the '$1 small gift' that pops up down the bottom. It'll say that they can't ship to your address when you get to the final stage.

  Nice, just bought some, it's also roughly this price on TradeMe.

  I wish the industry had standardised on 250g rolls at a similar price. I'd rather 24 rolls of a range of colour including some duplicates than having to try and use up 1KG before it goes brittle.

    I'm about to get into 3d printing and was wondering how long spools last before they go brittle? Does it make a difference if you keep them in bags with the air sucked out or whatever?

      Genuinely not a clue how long it takes, just that sometimes I'll get to the halfway mark on a spool and it starts breaking in the tube and I discover this when I go to take a print off and it's 70% complete and the rest just doesn't exist.

      In bags with the air sucked out is a solution, but that's a hassle if you want to have a few different colours and switch between them, my printer (FlashForge Adventurer 3 Pro) is very good at loading and unloading (not during a print).

      Have half a kilo of a blue spool I'm tossing out. And currently using like a sparkly purple I bought for printing stuff for my wife, and I'm stuck just printing everything in that because I want to use up the spool and not open another one.

      If you get a filament dryer you can combat some of the brittleness. It's the humidity, and to an extent the UV rays if left in sunlight - that can impact PLA and make them brittle. Some multicolour units - eg the AMS with the Bambu P1 - are sealed so can control humidity.

  Anyone else noticing PB and mighty ape started selling Bambu lab A1 and A1 mini, but way more expensive than Australia

    How much are they in Australia?

    On the OEM website the one with the AMS is 469USD on special and the NZD is pretty crap, directly translating to $830 before GST or $954 after. $559USD not on special which is $988/1136.5 inc.

    PB Tech has them for $1159 inc.

    So seems to translate alright from the OEM site, unless Australia is getting them particularly cheap.

        Oh yeah Australia seems to weirdly have it lucky. Everyone else is pretty on par with global pricing.

        I really want to pick up an A1 but seeing how much cheaper it is over there has been putting me off lol. Might look into a freight forwarder..

    I purchased my A1 w/ AMS Lite in Australia when I was passing through, and just checked it in the box as luggage when coming home. Nowadays it looks like the price difference between NZ and AU would almost pay for some cheapies return flights. You can even refund the GST when coming back, making it even cheaper.

  I'd never be able to use 6 spools before they start to go brittle.

    When they start to get brittle I just chuck them in a filament dryer for a day or so, and they tend to be fine after that. I've printed filament that I've left out for a year or so this way.
