5/5

posted Dec-04-2006
I read the reviews here before my order, but I decided to take a chance with ABCink. They have great sales on ink and I bought 7-pack of Ridisc ink packs. I read the reviews and Ridisc ink is highly rated replacement. I took the free shipping options, expected a two-weeks shipment, but I was pleasantly surprised, I got the package after only 4 days!
The package included my order, plus free photo paper (which was not clear from the site whether I should get these or not) and a cleaning kit bonus.
So overall I am very satisfied. The only bad thing I can say about ABCink is that the expiration date on the packages is pretty close, meaning, these units are sitting in storage for a while (maybe this is why they are on sale...) but if you are going to use them in the next 6 months or so you should be ok. I will report how they print when I try them, but right now I am pretty happy with the price, product and shipping.

Turns out I ordered the wrong ink. I contacted customer support for replacement. I had to pay the shipping and restocking fee (15%) but considering this was my mistake, I am not unhappy. ABCink were responsive via emails (thanks Carol!) and they always respond within 24hrs. The new ink were sent promptly again arrived at my door 4 days after my order! so this quick shipment was not a one-time thing. The new ink works perfectly and only the labels are not printed as nicely as the original Epson ink :) I recommend this store to anybody who don't expect a red-carpet type of service, but can do with reasonable prices and service.
