OK, so my printer cartridge dies. the little HP 45.
I went to the local "china-Mart" store and was shocked at how much a
little plastic cartridge with some kind of coal dust can cost.
I don't print much. I don't have much reason to, but dang!
Somebody said in the case of their older Lexmark printer the cartridge
was higher than getting a new printer with cartridges preloaded.
amazing.
Costco refills for about $9. Some other stores also.
I wish there was one around in my locale

You don't have a Costco??

Don, I live in BF ILLINOIS. I'm about 70 to 90 mi. of any town worth
going to.


So....


I'm pretty limited on what I can get, and where I can get it. But I'm
thinking on getting a couple refilled cartridges from Ebay and see
what happens. I mean, $8.95 USD with postage paid isn't much to lose
if they don't work.


If they do, then it still beats thepants off of ChinaMarts $37.00 a
piece

And I do, Harry. That is unless I have no other option. and in this
case, I was wanting to rack off about 25 copies of a bulletin, it was
10.00 pm, they were open, and had the cartridge.

So, they won that time.
