Cartridge World

My go-​to for printing necessities.
All I ever need is a new cartridge. Usually I buy a brand-​new one at Cartridge World and recycle the old ones using Lexmark’s service, but when I stopped in the other day, they were out. So the gentleman behind the counter offered to refill the old one while I waited. It took less than ten minutes, and it cost around $ 18, which is fantastic. No waste, cheaper, and fast service. I took it home, put it in the printer, printed, and all was well. No explosions, just some «low ink» messages that I was warned about by aforementioned gentleman.
Never had a problem with these guys, so I’ll gladly keep going back. Highly recommended.

Sorry, but the prices here are way too high. I really should have checked online first. Turns out we paid $ 70 for a laser cartridge we could have bought online for $ 25. Live and learn, I guess.

My cell phone is 3 years old. I have a VCR player. I’ve (recently) brought a discman on a flight. I listen to CDs. Flat-​screen tv? You jest. I am never on the front lines of digital innovation. I like what I like and if it still works, I use it. My printer is [too old write]. I can’t buy ink at Best Buy because they no longer carry the cartridges… and haven’t for a couple of years. A skinny geek (corporate’s words, not mine) had the nerve to giggle at my request. I poked him in the eye 3 stooges-​style and walked over to the land of Dave Matthews Band, Dawson’s Creek and everything cool about last decade… including my ink cartridges.
There’s no ‘tude. Just a smile, a glance at the wall to make sure there’s a replacement for the cartridge I need/​am bringing in, a nod, transaction of money, verification of my store credit and I am out there door. It’s win. I get to use my old reliable. I recycle my ink cartridges. I save money. I listen to entertaining music. And, after repeating this nine times or so, I get a free cartridge (save it for color; go for the gold). Yep.
I will lead the resistance against the machines. Or, I’ll watch it on tape.

Ok, I love the concept… In fact, I loved it so much I convinced my old job to be tree huggers and go this route instead of buying new cartridges.
But every time I have bought a cartridge from here for both personal and work use, it has ended up leaking ink everywhere.
My favorite time was when I was on my hands and knees in my old job’s tiny office wiping ink off of the floor because the cartridge exploded and ink was EVERYWHERE. I thought it was a freak accident until it happened on my home printer — luckily it was more contained that time.
So yeah, as much I want to do a good deed… I think I’ll go a few doors down to Best Buy and just buy them new and toss the old ones in a recycle bin.
It’s the thought that counts, CW.

love this place! the staff is really friendly. this one time i took my cartridge to walgreens but it was broken and after the 45 min wait i was still without ink. went to CW and they traded me a full one for my busted one. and they send out coupons from time to time over email and they keep track of how many you’ve bought so you can get a free one. a good green place for sure!

Cheap prices? Check.
Clean, bright store with Sunday hours? Check.
Friendly employees (especially Vlad!)? Check.
Computer-​based program so that when you buy nine cartridges, your next one is free? Check.
Exchange an empty for a filled to get a few bucks off? Check.
And on and on. I really like Cartridge World.

Great place to get cartridge refills… it saves a lot of money and they have refills for lots of different cartridges!

The place to go to get any cartridges or accessories for your printing needs. Their prices are reasonable and they have a great selection
