I tried buying them and refilling them at those aftermarket places.....but it never did have the performance of the OEM stuff.

Nowadays I just go to Costco...sure it's still expensive, but you do usually get more ink for the price.

BCI-24 is so old school!

You can just get that one refilled for cheap....no print head on that one I believe.

i order mine from costco.  Cheaper than futureshop, london drugs, bestbuy.  Unless one of those guys have a huge sale...which is very rare.  Alternatively, ebay but the shipping fees will probably kill off the deal.  I've used the refill stuff, it was ok but ended up clogging one of my printers....so I've never used it again.

BCI-24 is amazingly cheap.
I wish my printer that used those cartridges still existed.

Go to Parker Place on No.3 Rd. The electronic, computer shop near the food court is the cheapest.  Forgot the name. 
I believe it was $5 for Black and $8 for Colour.  Cash transaction, no tax, with a receipt. 

Or the guy that usually has a stand at the Night Market opened up a small shop in one of the Lansdowne Mall wings.

Honestly speaking, the BCI-24 OEM's aren't that pricey.

Less than $10 for the black, and I think around $25 for the colour.

My HP is old skool, but they figured a cost effective way.

I go to Powersonic on Bridgeport its $7.00 BLK & Colour for my HP and Epson. More if you have the combo-colours.

I was happy they helped refill.Benson is the owner and John is super helpful.

**For legend parts/support**I go to PC Galore on W.4th near UBC**

Good luck,

You can buy cheap ink carts on ebay. But if you do a lot of volume printing you could get a ciss continuous ink system

You know you replied to a thread from January 2009? Grin

I notice quite a few new people love going back and reading posts they weren't here for originally. We must post some interesting stuff sometimes? Haha.
