Do you ever feel that you are paying way too much for computer printer ink cartridges? It is amazing that now some computer printer peripheral manufacturers are now giving away their printers when you buy a new computer. Why you ask? Simple really, because at $33.00 per printer refill cartridge they will be making money off you for the life of your printer; consider if you will that their cost to make the printer cartridge is probably around a buck or two.Just the other day I happened into a Dollar Tree Store and found re-fill cartridges that worked on my HP Printer and the cost was $1.00 and I thought well, I should buy 10. So I did and my cost savings is about $320.00 for my next 10 re-fill. Or if I bought regular re-fill kits at $15.00 then my savings would be $140.00 and that is quite a bit of savings.Now then, if a company can sell the ink re-fill kit to the Dollar Store for $.50 and they are making 50% profit then they are producing it all for about $.25 to $.35 and the Dollar Tree also makes a profit. So, if the re-fill ink manufacturer is making a 50% gross profit at that low price, then one would assume that the $15.00 ink re-fill kits are making somewhere between 1000 to 1500% profit; sounds like the Health Care Industry?Perhaps we are all in the wrong business and yet if the ink re-fill companies are making 1500% profit imagine what the company is making at $33.00 for a new ink cartridge? Folks you and I, well we might all be in the wrong business it seems? I hope you find all my articles interesting topics of conversation to propel thought in 2007.
