Reason: I bought way too much ABS and I really just want PLA. My heatbed doesn't heat up well enough to print ABS reliably without warping (I have a Tiertime Up Mini 2 - the heatbed never goes above about 60deg C). Please only buy if you are confident your printer can print with ABS. I don't want anyone to be disappointed. If your heatbed can get to and maintain a temperature of about 90-110 degrees C, you should be happy with the product. I've found everything great about it, except the warping get's tiresome for me with my underpowered heatbed, and I have to scrap about 10-20% of my prints.
I have so much ABS because ordering from Filament Factory requires you to buy 3kg of each color to take advantage of their nice prices. So I will keep 1 spool of each of the colors I chose, but selling the rest at cost price.

Shipping: At buyers cost

Collection: Yes, prefer collection to shipping

hehe, for sure. If I was willing and had the time I'd do the necessary modifications to upgrade my heatbed. but on my model it's not a simple swap.

Also, I was considering giving people some sort of warranty, but (just to avoid any additional admin) decided that to be forewarned is to be forearmed (that is the saying... right?), so rather just warn people in advance that ABS isn't as easy as PLA to print, and hope that some people with beastly printer heatbeds and the need to print stuff that is more heat resistant or something would buy instead
