I purchased Nu-Kote's replacement cartridges for my Epson ink-jet printer. These cartridges were only about $5 less than Epson's brand. When removing the foil covering as directed, the entire cover came off leaking ink all over my printer, me, and my carpet.

Think TWICE before saving a couple of dollars on these replacements. You're much better off spending a little more to get the name brand.

By the way, love the site, it's nice to see a place to post stuff like this. Past experience with the Better Business Bureau has shown that they're more fluff than anything else! Keep up the great work!

STOP! ..before you think about using the Better Business Bureau (BBB)... CLICK HERE to see how other consumers were victimized by the BBB's false or misleading information. Don't be fooled! It has been reported, when there are thousands of complaints and other investigations underway by authorities, the BBB has no choice but to finally give an UNsatisfactory rating to a BBB member business that is paying the BBB big membership fees every year. When a business is reported that is NOT a BBB member, BBB files WILL more likely show an UNsatisfactory rating, then reportedly shake down that company to become a member of the BBB. One positive thing about the BBB is, either way, if a business has an unsatisfactory rating with the BBB, you can be sure, the business is bad. But what about all those BBB member businesses that had complaints filed against them? Consumers never get to hear about them. What about the BBB advertising to the public? Is this a false and misleading perception they are giving about consumer confidence when dealing with a business? Click here to understand more of what consumers and business alike are saying about the BBB. You decide. ..Remember. The BBB membership is not earned, it's paid for!

I've used Nu-Kote products for years and love them. I've never had a problem with the products and the Cartridge Plus ink tanks are about 1/3 the cost of the HP cartridge they replace.



However, I am having trouble getting them. Office Depot has discontinued them for their own useless (to me) product. I can't find them anywhere else and have had to resort to ordering on the internet, which is inconvenient and adds about $5 to the cost - which is still less than half.



Anybody have any suggestions?
