Buying Ink cartridges online

sor_fes2

Just wanted to recommend Pricestorm (https://www.pricestorm.com).
Cheap prices for ink cartridges for my canon printer, cheap delivery.... P&P cost only £1.50 to N.I! They were as cheap as a couple of other online shops for the ink but the P&P was super. Came in about a week as stated on their webpage (3-5 working days)

They come from Jersey or Guernsey (can't remember which one) so your order is divided up into smaller shipping so you don't have to worry about import tax (or whichever tax it is!)

Maybe we could have a sticky thread with recommended online shops for N.I. ie ones that have good prices and also don't charge us silly P&P prices?

Oh, meant to add, you can also access the pricestorm site through greasypalm (2% cashback) or cashbag(3% cashback)

You could also try Tesco stores (i.e. physical ones ) - I got a great bargain there once on two cartridges where the plastic packaging had been slightly damaged - they were reduced to about half the normal price of Tesco ones. Although admittedly you won't get this happening too often, and they didn't actually place them in the home office section of the store - they were in "seasonal goods"

Which Mplex do you shop in m8 :rolleyes:

I'm all for shopping local and supporting local firms but their prices are a rip off compared with other online retailers and thats even after adding P&P at inflated Norn iron prices :eek:

Owing to problems (i.e. pathetic print quality) from cheapo cartridges I now look to ensure that the cartridges meet BS standards (can't remember which one). They are a bit more expensive but the output quality and longevity can be far superior (I am very gfussy when printing our my snap shots)

There is also jettec.com who do pattern cartridges for all makes and who also do refill kits with full clear instructions and they have little gizmos that will reset those epson cartridges that epson put a chip onto so you can't refill them.

If you can't see your make of printer or cartridge there just ask then using their "contact us" and they'll be happy to tell you. I got an answer very quickly and I can't recommend them enough.
