    I use Ink Cycle

    They only buy Virgin Cartridges i.e. originals

    http://www.inkcycle.co.uk/

    Link at bottom right about buying cartridges

    I have used them about 5 times the cheque takes about 2 weeks, and you send the cartridges to them freepost

    Or you can drop them in at tescos, as they recycle them, and you get something like 250 or 500 points for each one.
    It's BOUGHT (to Buy), not BROUGHT (to bring) AND you cannot be frauded, only DEfrauded.

    Please do not buy animals from a pet store. Visit your local sanctuary or centre and give a good home to an unloved or abandoned animal.

    Hiya,
    Tesco give 50 points for each cartridge...as far as I know Epsons are not part of the Tesco deal.
    If you put them on ebay as a job lot they should sell...thats where i buy mine!
    Hope this helps.

    yeah you can refill them yourself.. they can be reused upto 5 times. Depends if you don't mind making a little hole and injecting ink. sometimes they don't work quite right afterwards. The ones that have value are cartridges with a head e.g all hp and some other brands (you can tell as they are heavier and electros on the case). Most Epsons have no value wotj recyclers as they can be manufactured cheaply (as they have no heads so little patents breached) and so compatibles don't have any value.
  • we sell ours to nigelgec on ebay. do a seller search and see if he would buy them.
