Typical wording - "up to 75% off" ... which means if one item is, then they've fulfilled that claim, even if everything else isn't.

This is the same company as the downrated usa1inkjets.com the other day ... look on the contacts page - same addresses. So my comment there - that even with the 5% off, the black is 66% higher and color is 102% higher than my usual source (Monoprice) - still stands.

And they keep posting this same crap deal week after week after week.

Their website looks like it was put together by my 10-yr old nephew. Combined with the over-inflated prices and bad mojo on the deals.woot community equals a big fat NEGATIVE VOTE.

monoprice dot com is still cheaper, at least for what I was looking at

The princess puts nothing but crap deals on the site.

I don't get the hate for LA Inks, I have a Brother and pay $6 per cartridge there as apposed to $35 at a store like Office Max, and they work great!

@secretagentwoman: *opposed. Please note that your $35 Office Max cartridge is a original equipment manufacturer cart, which means that if it fails and ruins your printer, it'll be covered by warranty. The cheapie cartridges can and sometimes do fail and leave you holding the bag for replacing the printer.

Once the warranty is over, shop for low cost along with high vendor reputation. Until then, buyer beware. A lot of these companies sell trash, accumulate a bad rep, then shut down and re-open with a new name. Lather-rinse-repeat.

@bangchan: don't hate on the staffers - this is a sponsored deal. The staff member who posts the deal literally has no choice in the matter.

vote-for3vote-against

Won't the sponsors realize that none of us want this? Shouldn't the past three times of getting downvoted past -50 tell them to STOP? Jeez.

vote-for2vote-against

Why do they keep putting up the same ink cartridge deal so often? Didn't want it last week, don't want it this week.

@durkzilla: I hate it when my boss tells me to go shoot the kids playing in front of the building. I know it's wrong but what am I supposed to do?

vote-for9vote-against

@cavimike: If you think there's some similarity between shooting a person and posting a deal on a website you're too far scr*wed up to be allowed near a computer at all.

If you're going to hang around here complaining about deals that are posted, why not try posting a few deals that you went out and found?

3Xs the price elsewhere. No thanks.

vote-for3vote-against

Fair or not, I'll be totally honest here: I'm gonna downvote any/all off-brand/refill type toner deals because I've tried SO many times to save money on ink this way and been burned EVERY time. YMMV of course, but it's one of the very few areas that I just pay up to get the 'name-brand"... I have yet to find ONE SINGLE off-brand/refill option that doesn't result in (at best) cruddy quality and (usually) clogs, blots and nowhere near the life-span to justify even the lower price.

vote-for2vote-against

if you dont want to see this deal anymore tattle on it saying it is a duplicate

Even the cheap off-brand cartridges end up being a ripoff. I bought a CISS for my printer for $35, printed literally hundreds of photos over the last few months, and there's still about 80% remaining ink. Installation was a bit of a pain, but the savings are totally worth it!
