When you buy a compatible toner cartridge on the internet you may not understand that you're taking an enormous risk. Many companies that sell toner cartridges via the internet may seem like legitimate, trustworthy companies. However, they may be scams, dishonest companies out for a fast buck or cheap foreign imports that work poorly if at all. Toner cartridges are actually one of the largest scam products on the internet today due to their high profitability. So why do companies purchase toner cartridges online? Simple - to save money. There isn't any other reason to. But if the products don't work, are they really saving anything?

With the seemingly endless rising cost of brand new toner cartridges, more companies are turning to compatible products than ever to save money. But are they doing it the right way? Many people tend to find the cheapest toner cartridges they can find on the internet and are surprised when they don't work.

Although compatible toner cartridges are substantially cheaper than OEM cartridges, it still costs a certain amount of money to manufacture them properly. Quality toner costs money. So do replacement drums. And cleaning blades, mag rollers, PCR rollers and all of the other parts that a company needs to replace in each cartridge to make it work the way it should - and the way you demand it to. And don't forget labor, testing, packaging, logistics, etc ... If a brand new OEM toner cartridge is $200 and a company is selling the equivalent compatible cartridge on the internet for $20, that should tell you something. Either it's a scam product, they didn't fill the cartridge with the correct amount of toner so that you'll order a lot more often, they didn't replace necessary parts or it may be imported from a foreign country where labor is extremely cheap and unskilled. Remember, you can always find it cheaper. But we're local, we're there when you need us and we stand behind everything we sell. And it's hard to put a price on that. We're not even going to pretend that we can compete with the lowest internet prices. We'd rather sell products that work!
