I received all of my items today, 8 rolls of Magic Cube ($8/lb) and 1 roll of G-Star ($18/kg). The G-star and 2 of the Magic cubes were vacuum sealed. All were in individual bags with desiccant. I plan to post full reviews in the filament thread but was wondering if anyone could suggest a good sample print. Preferably one that varies temp along the Z axis so that I can also tune in the best temp for each color. Otherwise, I will probably print a portion of the Star Vase sample so that I can compare to the stock ABS. I also have just started using a roll of Sainsmart that I will include in the comparison.
The dark blue magic cube seems to do ok at 210C, but does better at 220 or 230. The yellow G-Star wouldn't adhere to itself at 210, but works great at 230C. Did your dark blue look kinda beat up? Is that normal for dark colors? Because the prints looked ok and the color is great.

The price however, even for only 1lb is still pretty good.
The biggest question is the quality of the Filament. Is it good quality?Wow, I totally missed that. I do work in a marijuana lab, maybe should wear gloves more often...
Hahaha x)

]]>I would use caution with this seller as well as the product for this reason.
Many of the reviewers gave multiple reviews of the same seller around the same date. One gave a copy-paste review on two "G-Star" reviews.
Nice Catch!
