Ink Cartridges in Cork Costing More than Chanel no.5 ?

Who would have thought that buying an ink cartridge in Cork could work out being more expensive than buying a bottle of Chanel no. 5 for your significant other? This of course is true according to a recent survey carried out in the UK comparing the cost of original brand ink from manufacturers such as Canon, Epson, Hewlett Packard and Brother to the cost of buying Chanel no. 5 perfume. The UK BBC programme ‘Watchdog’ undertook to check out the actual cost of buying 1 litre of printer ink against that of the well-known perfume. This is also the case when the survey compared the printer ink cost per litre against other luxury items such as champagne and port.

It is estimated that the cost of the original brand ink cartridges in Cork is somewhere around 55cents for 4ml of ink and when priced pro rata it works out at over 3000 euro per litre. This is widely accepted within the UK and Ireland as a rip off and further encouraging people to use compatible ink as a more affordable way to run a family printer for a year. There is also a question over the capacity of the original ink with the introduction of ‘XL’ or extra large ink cartridges by the original brand suppliers. It appears that these cartridges are in fact the same physical size as the standard cartridge but are filled to a maximum capacity and classed as ‘XL’. This revelation to those people buying standard or XL will surely come as a shock and create a revolt against the suppliers. This has been nothing more than a way for these suppliers to add another product to the market and make more money.

The answer to this survey for all people buying ink cartridges in Cork is to turn to compatible ink and toner, with savings of up to 70% on inkjet cartridges and 50% on laser toner it’s the way forward in the light of these revelations. You will never receive the great deals with original brand that you would if you were buying the compatible cartridge. The manufacturers of replacement cartridges follow stringent ISO standards and this ensures you will receive a reliable good quality experience when buying your compatible ink in Cork. Mind you the other way to look at it, on a slightly funnier side, is to buy your significant other a full set of ink cartridges this year instead of perfume and put forward your case that they are worth more than his or her favourite fragrance.
