Click on More Buying Choices. I ordered last week the 5/set (shipped USPS) and the 12/set (shipped FedEx Ground). Both have chips.

wow, thanks...

Those Meritline knock-off's work well, they just NEVER include the Gray cartridge -- this "6-pack" most certainly DOES ... aaaaaaand I'm sold -- thx OP!

I had a deal alert for baby & this came up lmao

Stellar prices, but be aware of the potential downsides.

All new listings with no feedback--the seller itself is well-reviewed, but there are MANY many 225/226 inks out there that don't perform well. It only takes one bad set to ruin your clothes, clog printheads, waste your time, etc.

Still, cheap enough that I'm going to buy some sets to test. I highly doubt this price will last for long. It will probably go up (single-sets are closer to $5-$6 each elsewhere) once some positive reviews come in.

Sweet. I paid 6 bucks last year for this ink. I just had to pop those in my printer so now I can order another spare set for dirt cheap.

Quote from himarty : You were happy bringing this baby home on Black Friday but now realized he is constantly hungry. Sweat no more! Previously I used to pay about $4+FS+no tax for a set of 5 inks, but more recently paid $2.25+California tax+FS (select More Buying Choices). I think this is the lowest price anywhere: - 5/set [amazon.com] (one of each color) at $2.25 - 6/set [amazon.com] (one of each color; 6th is *gray* ink) at $2.75 - 10/set [amazon.com] (two of each color) at $4.45 - 12/set [amazon.com] (four of the large black + two of each color) at $5.45 Of the printers using CLI-226, only three require gray: MG5120, MG5220, MG5320, *MG6120*, *MG6220*, *MG8120*, MG8220, MX882, MX892, iP4820, ix6520. For comparison see attached CARTRIDGEWAREHOUSE (left) vs Vision Supplies. The latter calls them "Hi-Yield"; as you can tell from the picks CLI-226 has about 40% more ink while PGI-225 (not pictured) has about 15% less ink. Overall you are paying less while getting more ink, and they also shipped faster. If you have any vendor recommendations please let us know. My printer is hungry.

OP, where did those reference pictures come from? Have a link?

No, you did not pay $6 for these inks. You paid $6 for an entirely different set of ink, made by another ink supplier. These inks have only been available for sale since October. You are implying that you have tested these exact inks, when that simply is not the case--the quality may end up being quite poor.

damn. just ordered 10 sets for my 6220 at $5.25 a pop yesterday.
i am in for another 10 sets using your link. my staples are hungry, not my printer.

i think they make a mistake on 225 vs 226 description. the 225 is bigger in size, thus has more ink.

There are no high-capacity 225 cartridges. It's not like standard vs XL cartridges with HP. From the two pictures, it DOES in fact look like the carts on the right have more ink. YMMV I'm sure. I'd still like to know here he got the images.

Funny!! Babies are much cuter though.

They have a great eBay rating (techsupplies99): Member since: Jul-31-08, 39832 ratings, Positive Feedback (last 12 months): 99.7%.

I was not aware of their eBay store until today when searching their return address, finding it on Sears [sears.com] (where it lists a phone number), searching again for the phone number and find it on their ebay listings. I only tested one of the cartridges and they work fine.

I waited until now to post because with non-OEM it is always YMMV depending on vendor and their supplier at any given time.

Quote from MOkoFOko : OP, where did those reference pictures come from? Have a link?

The first three are my comparison and I took those pics today. The other four are OEM from the Amazon listing and not the actual (non-OEM) cartridges you get. SD adds those images automatically.

The 40% and 15% figures are based on my comparison for CARTRIDGEWAREHOUSE vs Vision Supplies. Vision Supplies's 225 may be higher yielding than OEM, but it has less ink than CARTRIDGEWAREHOUSE. I previously bought 10+ sets from CARTRIDGEWAREHOUSE for different people and they work fine I just hoped their price was lower.
