R1800 ink cartridges

Posted:
in General Discussion edited January 2014
I was checking online for some replacement cartridges for my epson R1800

when I came across this website.



Link Here.



Has anyone here used this website. Their ink prices are the lowest I've seen

($10.99). Normally they go for $13 & up. And they say that they only sell new

genuine branded OEM inkjet printer cartridges - they are not reloads or

refilled inkjet cartridges.



I just want to know if anyone had any bad experiences buying from this site.

    I checked the website & found this:



    Shipping Cost



    Our shopping cart lets you see the total charge for your order before you

    give us your credit card information



    The shipping/handling charge is computed for each shipment by UPS

    (United Parcel Service)



    A $2.00 fee is added to each order to cover some of the cost of boxes, tape,

    labels, packing materials, and insurance



    We do not make a profit on shipping



    Please note that some wide format papers (over 24") from Epson and Kodak

    are considered Oversize by UPS (United Parcel Service) and have an extra

    charge added by UPS

    These prices are great.



    The epson R1800 is a great printer, especially on the epson premium glossy paper, where it's quality matche the one of the Cibachromes. I really enjoy this printer, and I am not the only one : it's rated as the best printer for glossy paper.



    The major cons, is the price of the ink. If you can find real Espon ink K2 at this price, buy it.

    I've been using the premium luster papers with my R1800. I made a 13x19 print

    that I gave to my cousin as a wedding gift & the print is dead on with my

    powerbook's screen. Incredible printer but the inks are damn expensive.

    I just received my order! I purchased 5 different inks at $10.99 each with

    shipping charges coming out to $7.86. The inks look like real Epson inks & are

    in the same kind of epson packaging.



    Now I don't have to blow $15.99 at my local CompUsa anymore!

    Good news. Unfortunately I don't live in USA. I had to pay way too much for those inks.



    That's great, that those inks are Epson's ones. Otherwise you will lost your warranty.
