I was browsing for my ink refills for my printer and found this(?)

[The-One]

I don't get why the combo pack one with black ink included is cheaper than the one with the same inks but without the black ink included ? My printer is a PhotoSmart 8250 just for reference. Is there something that I'm missing here?

They're both compatible with my printer but why would I buy the more expensive one without black ink included?


thanks

Because the site isnt giving you all the info you need.

HP value packs (the ones with paper) use the smaller "starter" catriges which contain significantly less ink. so in this case the more expensive one is the better buy becasue it will give you more mL/$

Try swiftink.com instead. There's a 15% off coupon at heatware.com.

thanks guys. The fact that ink is even sold half full though is just pathetic.
