Where to get "Prusa Orange" PETG filament in the US?

I want to print a few parts to attach to my just-built Mk3, and the Prusa store was out of stock of orange PETG when I ordered, so I bought some bright orange PETG from another vendor. I printed a new knob for the LCD, and it's pretty clearly not the same color. I don't mind supporting the Prusa Reserch company, but shipping to the US seems to be about $16-$17 per spool and <just checked> the Prusa store is out of stock again.

Are there known good close-match orange filaments available in the US, specifically PETG?

3DXTech has a matte PETG that is a good match.

I have been ordering from 3dcustom (.ca) in Canada. Their prices and shipping are reasonable (in Canadian Dollars)

They're $48 to ship a single spool to the US.

DasFilament offers awesome PETG and their orange seems to match the PRUSA orange extremely well.

Are you finding it for reasonable prices in the US so OP can order inexpensively? The only options I'm seeing for shipping a single roll to the US are higher than the actual filament spool price.

I purchased mine from Filament PM.
I want to say it was ~€22 shipped to Texas after the VAT tax was refunded.

Rumor has it that's who Prusa was purchasing from. The color is perfect.

AmazonBasics PETG 3D Printer Filament, 1.75mm, Orange, 1 kg Spool is very close to the Prusa Orange filament and it's only $20 with free shipping if you got prime.

Re: Where to get "Prusa Orange" PETG filament in the US?

I ordered the Orange from Amazon but 1-3 months shipping is nuts.

All3d Makers is the US distributor for Fillament PM but guess what. They are out of stock.

Anyone else in the US carry this stuff? Im not having any luck and I really would like to print the parts I need in the matching material.

Thanks

Good judgment comes from experience, and a lot of that comes from bad judgment.

Re: Where to get "Prusa Orange" PETG filament in the US?

Looks like fillament-pm.com is only charging 6-7 euro to ship to the US, unless I've mis-read something. It may be slow, but if you want their filament, it's a good option.

Filament PM gets a roll to your door for about 22€, after the VAT is refunded. It takes about a week. I've dealt with them twice.
Last time they even sent a half dozen 50g samples. The only real downfall is that you need a PayPal account.

But it's a perfect match. And it's really good filament.

The Orange in stock at Amazon for same day shipping for me right now.. I've seen this happen a few times, it goes from same day to 3 months and flips back. often enough that really you're just getting in line and probably get it much faster than 1-3 months.

I think I got the last roll of orange PETG from all3dmakers two or so weeks ago. I bought one, immediately started thinking oh crap maybe I should get another and went back to buy another right away. Nope out of stock 30 secs after I checked out.

Can confirm that the All3dMakers Orange PETG came in a plasy mladec box and is a perfect prusa orange match.

Re: Where to get "Prusa Orange" PETG filament in the US?

The black PETG from Amazon is still about a month off. I think they said I would get it Oct 19th. Ordered Aug 22. 😉

I guess I'm just accustomed to being an 18 year full time seller on eBay and having everything ship the same or next day. This 1-3 month thing is completely foreign to me.
