Sourcing Issues

  • According to [10] - cheap chinese J Head counterfeits do not work - so make sure the hot end works
  • J Head exists from the original manufacturer - $56 - but shipping is a flat rate. Takes 48 hours to ship, but shipping method is unspecified. Need to contact seller to see if they can provide fast shipping.
