How is this even remotely 75% off? I looked up the printer cartridge for my printer and it was maybe a dollar or two cheaper than what I can get them at Walmart. By the time I pay their $3.95 shipping, it costs MORE than if I just pick them up at Wally World.

(and yes, I realize that the Woot deal is only 5% off, I was talking about their initial claim of save up to 75%)

idk, the brother toner is a pretty good price. certainly cheaper then in stores. http://www.lainks.com/.sc/ms/pml/Laser%20Toner--Brother/HL-2170W

The point is they sell refilled ink cartriges for $5-8 each (like my HP 92/93, which cost &*%^#$@'ing $25-30 each @ staples. So far, I have not had a bad/dry cartridge, and shipping is free if you spend >$30 (= 4 HP cartriges = >$100 @ staples.... aka save 68%+). The cartriges even come with those little sticker covers for the ink despensers... put em next to a staples cartridge, I can't tell the diff.

I looked up my HP 920 ink and it was $7.99 for re-manufactured cartridges. After buying all 4 it cost $32 and that isn't even XL. At IceMonkey I got all 4 for $19.99 free shipping and they were genuine HP, not refills! After calculation at Costco, that was a deal. And even Costco is much better than this. Also if I use a refill, my printer will not register ink levels anymore, frigging HP. Already ruined one printer that way. Even putting new HP genuine, no longer worked, so I will never do it again.

Just so... for my cartridge this is not a deal, and I would never get the refilled version. I already used the IceMonkey ones and they're good to go.

How the f do you even use IceMonkey... can you even search for a product? Do they reliably have various cartriges for sale? It looks like a scam site...

I mean, I guess I can appreciate that your "4-Pack HP Black and Color Ink Printer Cartridges (Choice of HP564 or HP920)" deal is on their page... but uh.... how do you know it will be there tomorrow? And... yeah, I don't got a Costco membership >_> and LAInks beats the hell out of most other stores, reman or not...

YMMV with LA Inks, but I can promise you that at least some of their refills are very good deals. I have an HP Color Laserjet and the toner carts for those are really expensive...almost $80 for the black cartridge alone. LA Inks is just under half that.

Since I can't edit my @##$% post above, I meant just OVER half the price, not under.

I don't know why all the hate, my Brother cartridges are usually $35 and I get them for $4 here, and they've got a customer in me. They've worked perfectly in my printer. Fast shipping, too!

I've grown to loathe inkjet printers and the expense of owning them. But what am I to do?

I did find a Samsung laser printer for $50, sure it only prints black but that's all I need for my work stuff (I'm an independent contractor who home offices). A replacement toner cartridge is more than the printer but I think I get about 1500 pages per cartridge, IIRC.

Although the 5% off is pretty small, I have a Lexmark and the cartridges are insanely overpriced. Bought the printer because its wireless and convenient not realizing that for a single XL cartridge (has 800~ pages opposed to a normal one with 250-300), it runs about $35. On amazon a single black XL cartridge is $32.98 with free shipping, through LA Inks I get both an XL black and color for $34. I'll take that any day of the week
