Think Print Ink Cartridges

We have been using Think brand of Print cartridges for a number of years which are a lot cheaper than the "official" HP cartridges. In the main until 3 months ago, we have been very happy with these compatible print cartridges and they have done no harm at all to our printer However in the last 3 months when we have ordered several Think print cartridges, which we have purchased either through Choice Stationery or via Amazon, From both these outlets they have only lasted a very short time before the ink runs out after a minimal amount of use. To be fair "Choice" did send us a couple of replacements free but defective print cartridges are a lot of hassle. Has anyone else had this problem recently with the Think brand. We are contemplating looking at another compatible brand. Can anyone recommend an alternative?

i would seriously look at hp instant ink. i pay 3.49 pm for 100 pages and would highly recommend it. not having to worry about all the problems associated with buying cartridges is worth every penny.
you need a compatible printer"The Holy Writ of Gloucester Rugby Club demands: first, that the forwards shall win the ball; second, that the forwards shall keep the ball; and third, the backs shall buy the beer." - Doug Ibbotson0 -
We agree that the quality of Think cartridges would have appear to decreased recently. However we don't know if this is our printer stating to get worn or the cartridge. They do not seem to last anytime at all. How many sheets of papers should the average cartridge print? We calculated it printed under 50 sheets before running out is that about right?0
