I am a person who likes product quality and reliability, but I don't want to pay the "name tag" pricing (in this case HP). After using refurbished cartridges that ruined my printer, I started using HP cartridges and had no problem since. To keep the cost down, I'm using the Amazon Subscribe&Save program. The quality is right, and the price, too. Free shipping (2 days if you are a Prime member)... Works for me.

I thought I was buying from Amazon, but it ended up shipped from one of their market partner. The cartridges is not in its original box and both packaging are cracked. They look like factory rejects. Seller never responded to my inquires. Just one BAD experience. The ones that I used to buy directly from Amazon are always new with box.

1.0 out of 5 stars HP has big problems with cartridges and Support, October 22, 2010

This review is from: HP 02 Black Ink Cartridge in Retail Packaging, Twin Pack (C9500FN140) (Office Product)

HP has big problems with cartridges and Support of their ink cartridges. I have had 3 cartridges from 2 sets that would not be accepted by the printer. This happens when the electronic chip or its programing is defective or is damaged in transit. This is not terribly unusual but 3 in the same week is. All were within 30 days of purchase and all were sealed until they were installed and refused to print. New replacements did work.
The real problem comes when you try to get them replaced under warranty. There is no clear way to contact HP. You need to go to the support section and report it as a problem, Then you get a reply asking you to do several things and print a report which can not be printed with a defective cartridge and scan it and send it to them. Failing that they want 13 separate pieces of information most of which are not printed on the cartridge. Then you get a reply that says it will be replaced but you need to fill out another set of questions and give them the serial number of your printer. This is a lot to expect of a consumer who has done nothing more than buy a printer cartridge.
So far the single pack cartridges are OK. Stick with them or avoid HP altogether.
