Epson compatiable from 10p, HP's from £1.99

MX2 are selling off all their stock of compatiable spectrum cartridges.

This means

Epson C80 - 10p per cartridge
Epson C62 - 25p per cartridge
Epson R200 - 25p per cartridge

There are not many HP's left, but colour 28's - £1.99

The 28's will work in your printer if it takes a HP 57.

Delivery 1.95 regardless of quantity. No returns as they are just selling the stock off.

Lexmark, Canon and Brother are all in there too. You need to scroll down to the bottom of the page and choose your printer.

I have ordered the HP's before now and they were of ok quality. But they were also nearly £12 less than a HP original!

https://www.mx2.co.uk click on 'compatiable ink cartridges' scroll down and go to the spectrum image choose the make of your printer.

Might not have your cartridge there, but it's been a case of first come first serve.

    The cheap HP ones have expiry dates of 04 and 05- are there any problems with this? What is realistic lifespan of inks?
    Just because you used to be you think everybody else is, don't you?

    Definately something strange going on here

    Spectrum T041 Colour (Expires 07/07)
    Description Spectrum T041040 Colour
    Compatible: Epson Stylus C62/CX3200
    While Stock Lasts
    Our Price £0.25

    Put 10 into basket, and basket reads

    ET041 - Spectrum T041 Colour (Expires 07/07) x £1.09 = £10.90

    Total cost of items in your basket £10.90
    Post & Packaging + £1.95

    :confused:

    Maybe a maths lesson is in order here :rotfl:
  • I've ordered from this company before without any problems. Thanks for posting about these prices.

    I tried to order some yesterday at 25p cartridges and they kept coming up at £1-09p. Still cheap but I decided to email them. Just received a reply :-

    "With reference to your recent email. We would like to advise that this item
    is no longer available as all stock has now run out."

    Makes one wonder does it not ?

    I ordered 6 of the T041 cartridges at £1.09 each (should have been 25p but still v. cheap !) and have had an e-mail to say 5 have been dispatched so I think I must have had the last of those. I also ordered some T0431 which were charged correctly @ 10p each.

    Thanks to the OP from my 6 year old who has been complaining her printer was out of ink for ages !!

    It seems that you can order two of each cartridge at the really cheap price but if you add anymore than 2 of any items it does revert to its original price!

    Really strange - or maybe they really do have low levels of stock and there are only a couple of each left?

    PS I found a great supplier of Epson R200 cartridges on Ebay selling 12 catridges for £9.99 delivered! Wicked price!

    I just checked out the prices on a HP 28 cartridge, came out at £3.99 for a clearance item, then I noticed it was for an 8ml ink size, the standard one is 15ml, so although there is still a saving it might not quite be the ultra bargain it first appears.
