It appears as if Makerbot is getting ready for some growth. Today they announced a partnership with Ingrim Micro, a wholesale distributer in the US. In doing so Makerbot will not reach many more resellers/distributers. Currently the makerbot products are only sold in the Makerbot NYC store as well as online at their site, and in some Microsoft stores. This will expand things much further.

I'm so glad to hear that they're finally branching out!
Thats good because when you order some filament and it takes six weeks to ship it you know theres a problem... They definitely need the help.
I agree. This should certainly speed up filament orders. I can now start buying my filament from them hopefully!Quote:

That being said I ordered a roll of the new support material from makerbot and just this morning I order a roll of glow n the dark abs. $90 a kilo *OUCH* Let's hope for good results and few failed prints ;)
I had the same problem. Order were taking literally 3-4 times as long as it should have been taking. Hopefully the new distribution will help the processing and delivery of filament.
