Refurbished Printer Cartridges

Looking for information on refurbished printer cartridges?  I'm sure you can find a lot of those on Ebay.  A refurbished item is one that has been repaired and resold at a discount.  Typically a person may return an item that was broke, but the salespeople still needed to collect money on it.  These items need to be marked as refurbished in the United States, and can not be sold as new products.  Many people can get great deals this way.

A refurbished printer cartridge can be one that was repaired or it might be one that is recycled and given new ink.

Here are some of your best bets for refurbished printer cartridges:

1. Ebay - obviously you can find just about anything on ebay.  Look for auctions selling refurbished printer cartridges.  I was able to find them easily enough.
   

2. bestinsupplies.com - a great website that sells anything office-related, and often times has great discounts.
   

3. printersupplies.com - another great website that contains a lot of refurbished equipment for sale.  Check it out.
   

Maybe you want to know how to make refurbished printer cartridges.  It's pretty simple.  Laser printer cartridges are refurbished by filling the cartridges with toner, ink, or the like.  You may even have to replace some damaged or worn parts.  Typically, most refurbished printer cartridges are also considered to be recycled.  It is easy to recycle printer cartridges and resell them, and there is also a pretty good profit to it.  There is a better profit for refurbished printer cartridges then there is almost all other refurbished equipment you may run into.  Try it sometime.  It's also a great save for the consumer too.

As you can see by looking at the chart above, the selling of refurbished printer cartridges has really spiked upwards.  This is mostly due to some new laws passed by congress, and the price-drop of toner.  Several new companies came out that produced inexpensive toner for consumers.  This caused a huge pike in refurbished printer cartridges on the market, and it seems to only be the beginning.  Actually it makes more sense to just fill up a cartridge then it does to go out and buy new cartridges every time you run out of toner.  I'm not sure why other people don't do this more often because I think it makes a big difference on the pocketbook.

I've noticed a lot of the big office stores offering refurbished printer cartridges lately.  It's almost become the norm.  I'm surprised to find out that Circuit City was using it before they went out of business.  Office Max, and Next Tag also sell them.  I would rather just buy ink toner instead of refurbished printer cartridges.  That way you can save even more money.  Printer cartridges are just too expensive to begin with.  With the way the economy is there is no surprise that this has really taken off.  The price of gasoline is also a big factor I'm sure.
