i cant seem to find a topic regarding PLA and ABS direclty so i figured i would make one
first off i would like to ask why the majority of companies that sell the filament are always out of stock
second i would like to know where THEY get their stock and if there are USA wholesalers that i can go directly to
i tried googling and i cant find wholesale PLA filament

Ultimachine has plenty of PLA in stock, and they almost always have at least some colors in stock. I've never had an issue buying PLA from them.

I just looked at ultimachine's site, and they have every color of PLA in stock except natural. Like I said they're out of stock of specific colors but always have something. In this case they have black, blue, silver, orange, white, translucent blue, translucent green, and yellow (did I miss anything? I just glanced at it). Is there nothing there you can use?

No problems here... PLA only.

There is a list of filament suppliers on RepRapWiki
My webshop is also on the list.
For US citizens my shipping rates are probably too high, but for europe they seem to be very acceptable.
The filament i sell if from repraper.com It's a widely used filament and a lot about it is written here on the forum.
If you want filament wholesale, you should contact a manufacturer. You can find many of them on Ebay.

I just received my first shipment of plastic and I am working on getting my site up and running. I will be selling 3mm and 1.75mm filament in white, black, natural and safety orange as well as nylon. I plan on expanding my color offerings as I can afford to. It is very expensive to stock every single color in every format available. I'm not out of stock but I also haven't officially opened my doors for business 
If anyone needs some plastic before I open please let me know. As of right now my price is $38 a Kg and everything is sourced inside the United States.
