    Ebay is always a good bet.
    Check the expiry date with seller before bidding if it's not listed.

    If you have a Canon or Epson printer try this guy on Ebay: discountcartridges.
    I've been buying from him for years. He's dirt cheap and his cartridges are always fresh.

    Yeah, I ordered before and had no problems. Delivery I think was about 3 or 4 days.

    That was about 2 years ago

    Give cartex.co.uk a miss, ordered some carts and paper 18 days and counting and they are not responding to emails. In fact the email for order queries does`nt work.

    Hmm, I've always got my carts form Cartex and never had an issue. Though, in saying that, I haven't ordered from them in a few months.

    Inkjet.ie are dire. I've ordered from them a few times and had to send the cartridges back as they were dry.

    €2.42 for ink cartridges???? :eek:

    I don't get it, what am I missing here?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,437 ✭✭✭Dr. Nick


    Ahhh, they're 're-cycled'. Still, €2.42??? What's anyone's experience with these?
    Are these prices a mistake?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,739 ✭✭✭nava


    Hi

    No they are real, they are closing down that's why they are so cheap, also free postage, I order 2 on Wednesday and got them today in the post original HP ink for 2.42 each. Exp. date was July '05

    Regards

    There just less than 1€ a cart(For Epson anyway) on blank disk shop.But saying that delivery is 15€ so youd want it to be worth your while.

    Hi

    if you are looking for cheap ink I found photoglossy.com cheap for the HP original ink I needed and also free postage to the Uk and Ireland, also pricestorm.com have good prices.

    I never used Re-cycle or compatible ink but from other people they said that they are not as good as originals but very close, depends on the brands.

    Thanks for all the links guys(Nava in particular)
    I've ordered a colour and black for a HP deskjet 970cxi(45A and 78A). All in all(incl. shipping) it was EUR24.20 from pricestorm.I'll update this post with the quality once I have them in action.

    I'm still a little lost on this. How can a company be selling at one-twentieth of the the RRP, recycled or not? Closing down or not.
    Even their competitors (links above) are 10 times the price.

    €2.42 just seems too good to be true, but if someone can convince me conclusively.....my printing worries are over for 10 years+.....!

    Hi

    I don't know but some of the reasons could be:

    Limited (very low) stock, I order 1 on the C6658A and 1 of C6657A but they didn't have any of the C6658A so i changed the order to 2 C6657A (they said the last 2 of the C6657A ) and they are gone form the website so it looks like it was true.

    Date on them is July 2005 so just out of date.

    Under About they have
    Minimum packaging means lower production costs, less weight and lower postage costs, and less waste in the environment.
    so is cheaper to post 60c for my order, and they might buy them in big boxes, each cartridge is wrapped in the HP bag, with an HP leaflet attached to it, like what you get when you buy in the shop.

    They been around for years, so letting a few of them go cheap might be ok with them as they already made the money

    They also said if any of them wasn't working they will give me a refund.

    I'm happy with my order under €5 for 2 original HP cartridge.

    Regards
