Got some more ink off ebay for my epson r300 printer, it takes 5 colour inks and a black
I got 3 of all the colours and 5 blacks (20 in total) for £8.99 with free postage
I have just got back from tesco and noticed they are selling 1 of every colour plus a black (6 in total) for £69.95 = £11.65 per ink!!!!!!
So i got 20 inks for less than one ink in tesco!
Are there really any people out there that would pick that off the shelf and buy it?! you could buy a new printer for that!
Advice - always buy ink of ebay - i have done for 5 years now and never had any issues with the ink, plus i print photos etc and haven't noticed
any problems.

How does that work then? I've got a 15 (at least!) year old HP Deskjet 710 sat next to me that refuses to break and using Tesco own brand cartridges is seriously cheap for B/W printing BUT sat next to that is an Epson Stylus RX560 3 in one thingy which because of the price of the tiny ink cartridges I really only ever use as a scanner BUT for decent colour stuff it knocks the Deskjet into the middle of next week......... BUT if you just had to buy the ink......??????

Thanks for this, i'm regularly paying £10 for some black ink in staples!
