Lexmark X6150 Ink Cartridges!!

Hello guys, I know most of you hate the @#$! printer industry with them damn inkjets... ripping you off with the ink prices so that you pull your hair out everytime you run out of ink.

I've noticed that online you can get ink for cheaper, which is exactly why I'm here to ask this question : What website would you recommend for the cheapest ink cartridges (trusted and safe site of course)?

My parents' Lexmark uses 82 (black) and 83 (color) cartridges. I believe that they retail for well over around $35-40 EACH in stores.

Thanks for your time!

I never liked online sources for ink. Yes, you can find sources whose prices are dirt cheap but you can never be certain about the quality of the ink you're paying for. Generic ink may work in some printers while in others you'll may ultimately find it in a puddle somewhere in your printer or the printed page. And, when that happens, who do you complain to? How successful do you think you'll be in getting your money back to say nothing of the wasted printing job you just had to scrap.

I happen to like Cartridge World stores. I like them because they ARE STORES. Brick and mortar locations with actual people you can talk to should things go awry. You may pay a little more than you'd pay online distributors who use generic ink, but you'll pay far less than you'd pay for a new cartridge and you'll get a filled ink cartridge whose nozzles have been tested to ensure the cartridge works properly.
