From what I've heard, they are the best, however they are not the cheapest ($50/kg). The Concord Fry's Electronics started carrying 3mm PLA in the past couple months, and I imagine other Bay Area stores have too. I believe they want $40/kg and I have no idea of the quality or origin. NorCal Reprap <a href="http://norcalreprap.com" target="_blank">norcalreprap.com</a> out of Sacramento is a small shop which sells PLA and ABS for $35/kg. I'm not sure they will always be open to it, but they were willing to meet me at a Starbucks in Sacramento rather than me paying shipping. I haven't bought from them yet, but as they're local-ish I've decided to try them for my next purchase, because I have a friend that commutes to Sacramento semi-regularly, otherwise the trip probably would be prohibitive. If you want *really* inexpensive PLA there's Jet on <a href="http://amazon.com" target="_blank">amazon.com</a> which I've heard is good. Finally, there's the tragically named chinese <a href="http://repraper.com" target="_blank">repraper.com</a> which I've also heard is functional, and haven't heard anything bad about. They are very inexpensive (~$31/kg) but shipping will make up the price difference easily if you don't buy in bulk. It's my understanding NorCal Reprap resells repraper's PLA, but at $35 is cheaper than repraper+shipping. Hope that helps!</p>
