if someone wants to pay $11/spool for PLA in quantity, they are welcome to. Still does not make it a Slickdeal... just a daily price.

In that some companies sell for more does not make it a good deal. Plenty of posts where where PLA is around $8/spool.
Properties are the same. All can have issues.
I could say Jayco makes good stuff. Same difference.
I then noticed that the part I pulled out of the extruder had teeth marks on it from the gears so I took that apart and cleaned everything and changed filaments. No problems, everything printed fine.
A few rolls later I remembered that I still had this mostly full roll of filament and put it back on the printer. Same thing happened again. Clogs and gear marks. I took it off and threw it away.
I took pics along the way and contacted Elegoo. To their credit they sent me a new extruder and a new roll of filament but I have never had this before and like I said in general Elegoo works great for me but so does 99% of the cheap stuff I get. This was the only really bad roll I ever had that I could not fix at all and it happened to be a brand name so I know the brands are no guarantee.
I do have 20ish rolls of filament from AliExpress from a variety of cheap brands, but when I am producing something for someone else or on a timeline I prefer a known quantity.
