Review: the Cheapest Inkjet Cartridges Sites

Do not buy from inkrediblenzk there e-mail does not work or their phone. my order charged to my credit card but I never received it. stay away from them

I have bought from 4inkjets for a while and I would say that one in three cartridges never work. I continued to buy from them just because the price was good enough that even with the lousy odds, it was still cheaper than buying from Office Depot. Finally my last batch didn't work at all and completely gummed up my Epson so I'm back to buying the expensive stuff.

Based on your rating (and that of PC World) that 4inkjets had the best prices and reliable cartridges, I bought a "large bundle" (14 cartridges) for my new Canon MG6120. I don't do that much printing, so was concerned about the shelf life of their cartridges. Their site says it's 36 months. I figured I could use them up in that amount of time, so ordered the "bundle" for the amazing price of $63 (after 7$ discount coupon).

None of the cartridges they sent had a shelf life of 36 months. Several would expire in 30 months -- close enough -- but the rest said "use before 05/2013". At the time I received them, that was only 18 months away. I contacted the company 3 times via e-mail, once by online chat, asking them to replace the ones with the short expiration date with newer ones. I got no response, so tried calling them. That reached a phone with a recorded message saying no one was available to take the call.

Luckily, the cartridges are recognized by the printer and the quality of the print is fine. I say "luckily" because had the cartridges not been recognized or the print quality had been poor and I tried to take advantage of their "guarantee", I probably would not have been successful. I subsequently also discovered that the company refused to participate in Reseller Ratings program to resolve customer complaints, a bad sign.

In summary, I will not be buying from them again and strongly suggest that Gizmo should check customer support before recommending companies.

I used www.economyink.ca for the last couple of purchases and are happy so far. I got the wrong cartridge once and they refunded my money with shipping cost so that was cool. Like some other sites they claim to have a price matching policy but I have yet to use it.

I am in Canada, and am trying to find a good source of online ink that as has affordable shipping rates for Canadians. One ink company I am considering is Absolute Toner because they are local, but I am worried about their quality. What would be the Canadian equivalent of Carrot or 4inkjets?

Any advice would help!

I have a HP Pro LaserJet printer and a Samsung ML 2010.

Thnx a lot for the useful info. I've ordered ink from '4InkJets' so that u can get some money nd their price was the best of the lot. Hopefully it'll arrive without taking too much time (usually free shipping takez too much time). Will let you knw if their ink was as good as their price. =)

Do NOT do business with SuperJet USA!!

First off, their product came without any instructions at all. It took three calls and four emails to get instructions that were vague and incomplete. I went ahead and installed the refillable ink cartridge into my printer and it broke my printer! The faulty cartridge system dried up the printer heads which can't be fixed without completely taking the heads apart. I had to dump my printer and buy a new one.

I called SuperJet USA and tell them about the problem and they said to send it back to get a partial refund (because the items are now used). I sent everything back and now they say they never received the package and won't return any of my calls and blocked my emails (my emails are bounce back to me saying that "sales@superjetusa.com" is not a valid email address). I've called at least 25 times and each time the same girl who speaks very little English acts like we've never spoken before and takes down my number and says a manager will call me back. This has been going on for 3 months.

I imagine that this company is run out of a spare bedroom and the phone number you call is a cell phone. Often when I call the girl picks up and just says "Hello?" and doesn't even realize I'm calling about SuperJet USA for a good minute.

The whole business is a scam. BEWARE!

I ordered cartridges in bulk, three black ones, and two color ones from Click Inks. Great price, but....

I don't print that much, but the cartridges ran out in record time. One black cartridge didn't print at all, no matter what I tried. I think they only fill the cartridge half way.

I'll not try them again. I'll try someone else. Has anyone tried PrintPal? I used them before, and was satisfied, but got sucked into the even lower prices and promise of a three-year shelf life, at the inferior Click Inks site. Ha!

www.inkredibleinkz.com got me quick service but I got wrong ones. Now no phone working and emails unanswered. CarrotInk did much better. Nice folks.

Clickinks--my Brother printer was working fine with cartridges from Laser Monks (a great company) but I bought from Clickinks. Installed cartridges and printer wouldn't recognize them. I called the company and went thru all their little tricks, no luck. They said return them and they would send some from a different batch AFTER they got these back. That's about 3 weeks without a printer. I went and bought genuine Brother cartridges and now the printer won't recognize those either! The printer heads have been damaged...$125 to repair or buy and new one. Clickinks is totally unresponsive to any of my inquiries...bad company to do business with.

I want to know if anyone used Simply Bargains I used a place in Florida years ago and the guy sold out of his home but all was alright. Now I need a cheap place and a friend said to use simply Bargains but no toll free number. anyone have a problem?

Beware of Discount Inkjets on eBay. I purchased 10 cartridges from them for my Epson Stylus C84 that worked well for 6 years using cartridges from 4 or 5 companies. The printer had no problems until I began installing the cartridges from Discount Inkjet. Each color had multiple blocked jets shortly after I installed that color cartridge. There was no response to my email to Discount Inkjets.

I wonder if www.re-inks.com ships their ink cartridges from USA or Canada?

I opened up a cartridge from 4inkjets and have black ink all over my hands. It came pouring out. Thankfully, it didn't get on anything else. Obvously, I don't recommend them and will never use them again.

STAY AWAY from INKREDIBLE INKZ. These people are crooks. I ordered Epson compatible cartridges from them in their bundle and they say they are 100% compatible. They don't even print the print test page. The print is nonexistent on even that page. The black ones are horrible. Can't get them to respond to e-mails. Turned them over to my credit card company to dispute because I can't even get a return address from them to ship the crap back. They are terrible to deal with and never respond. On their website it says you have a 12 month warranty. On their customer service page it says you have a 30 days money back guarantee and a 12 month replacement policy. If they don't respond, how are you suppose to get the replacement and ship the stuff back. DO NOT BUY FROM THEM UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES.

Has anyone ordered remanufactured Epson ink cartridges from InkjetSuperstore?

Has anyone order printer cartridges from USAinktank.com (www.peachtreeink.com? They are so cheap that it makes me wonder.

I've used Inksell's compatible HP 02 carts for couple yrs - always worked great, until recently. They changed suppliers. None of about 6 cartridges I actually tried, worked over 2 wks. These were from 2 orders, months apart - but same color boxes. Most worked OK 1st few days - then reported empty (they weren't) or malfunction.

Inksell's very generous w/ returns - but after returning a few of these at a time, I asked & they PROMISED - "We won't send any more green & white boxes." Six of 8 they replaced were green & white. I got (yet another) RMA / free shipping label & returned for refund. Now looking for better quality remanufactured.

I see others are having same quality probs (where didn't before) from previously highly rated stores. Even if stores have good return policy (& provide free return shipping), time of repeated trips to post office (unless return w/ no proof of mailing, etc) QUICKLY outweighs savings.

Depressing. All are made in China? Guess the sellers have no quality control? Don't know that "hit or miss" chances of buying remanufactured are still worth it - though hope some seller has better quality at decent (not cheapest) price.
