New Long Delivery Times for PETG from Amazon UK

The delivery times for PETG filament from Amazon UK stocks has just increased from next day delivery, to 6 day delivery. Is anyone else finding this problem?

Obviously PETG filament is not a priority product, like food and medical supplies, but it is essential for anyone printing the Face Shields.

Can I be very cheaky, and ask if there is there any chance someone a Prusa Research could point this out to their contacts at Amazon?

I have two printers, and have outstanding orders for PETG filament from Prusa and Amazon UK. I presently have enough PETG to last me until Thursday, with the 4 day Easter holiday coming up. I am printing 8 shields with cover each day. I have so far delivered 10 shields to my local hospital, with another 40 going out tomorrow.

At the start of the current miseries, Amazon Prime shipping times extended 3 weeks or more. I've found that revisiting orders and selecting the "change shipping" option, if available, may result in dropping a week or more off delivery time. 12 PETG spools of AmazonBasics changed from April 21 to April 14th.

Hi Bobstro,
I have always had no problems with SUNLU PLA+ and PETG which is on shorter delivery times at present in the UK, though the Amazon basics Translucent Blue I had in February was also trouble free.

Look after yourself.

We're supporting those in the fight as best we can! Always thought I'd be the hero in the movie, only to find myself loading muskets. Good luck to you as well.
