These cartridges are shown as individually wrapped which is exactly what I wanted however what I received was bundles of 3 cartridges wrapped together in clear plastic. They are not even wrapped seperately within this clear plastic. This now means that when needing to replace just one colour, 2 further cartridges have to be opened at the same time. It can be 2 months before I need to swap some colours meaning these now opened cartridges have to sit gathering dust and slowly drying out.These are not cheap and having now seen them they are certainly not worth the money. I will be purchasing from a reputable high street seller in future. In the meantime I need to find a way of re sealing these cartridges to enable safe storage. Very disappointing inkexpress.At +_ £1363/ litre I think that is is very expensiveYes calculate and that is roughly the price. The container while obviously is important cannot I think justify contributing towards this amount. Epson must make good profit.On the plus side the reason I use it is the no name brand cannot compare with the colour rendition and archival permanence.I have run tests and know that the Epson printed pic will be in all it's glory when the cheap ink has not just faded but totally died.It is a catch 22 situation but I think that when calculated price/litre it makes you wonderwell at last,i have had the inks that i wanted delivered, to me in spain. there was a bit of a mixup with the delivery. MRW said that they tried to deliver it, a day early but could'nt. i had an e-mail from amazon to this effect. i checked the post box, no slip. i had to think when i phoned customer services. i went out at 7.00pm. only me, not the wife. they tried to deliver it at 6.00pm. so we where both in. my bell works both on the ground floor, and upstairs. i have 2 dogs that bark when the bell goes. (ARE WE ALL DEAF). i went to the local MRW office the next morning, it's not there. it's in another office some 20 miles away. they will deliver it tomorrow. it would then have been a day late. and we could have gone elsewhere, after i left. but they did deliver it that day. (I WILL ADD, THAT ALTHOUGH SOME OF YOU HAVE PROBLEMS WITH MRW, AND THERE WAS A SLIGHT HICCUP THIS TIME. I HAVE HAD NO PROBLEMS). before i could only get the hummingbird multipack which is not the economical pack. this order is as shown, original epson individual inks. won't be used just yet!. after ordering my first hummingbird multipack, 2 years ago, i keep getting recommended best selling epson inks. None of which will fit my printer. after having 2 orders, for HUMMINGBIRD inks, and now (at last) 1 order for OWL inks, i now get ads for best selling all-in-one printers. only one in list is epson, and guess what, it won't take the inks. so i don't know whether, i have the wrong printer for the best selling inks, or the wrong inks for the best selling printers. i have had 2 more recommends, for printers that take the ink, and one of them is for a newer version of my one (PX810FW)now(PX830FW)so i suppose out of 20+ recommends for ink/printers over 2 years, 2 is good. well it is 10%.put new cartridges in today and the Cyan not registering? bloody anoying as i have printing to do? i have always bought epson and never have i had an issue, there has been no response to my request for tech support?These six high capacity genuine Epson Owl inks for my Epson PX730Wd arrived very promptly [10-5-12]. Despite the experience of some other reviewers, mine were each individually vacuum sealed within individual display blister packs. (The photo here is accurate.) So no worries at all about any drying out once you use one. They all had long dates of over 2½ years.The delivery was prompt and service good. I can recommend this supplier to anyone. (Well anyone who wants to pay for the still pricey genuine Epson inks.)
