Seriously though, other than the text book industry, I think the printer ink industry is the number one price gouging enterprise. There’s no reason I should be paying more for ink than for a damn printer. I’d rather go drain an octopus.

you do realise the reason for the price difference is that the printers don’t come with full ink cartridges. The new ones last much longer and save alot of closet space.
Review by MEB for Rating: Amazon does offer the lowest price on the Canon CLI ink caiegrdrts. But the price for these inks, IMO, are still pretty high, especially considering the size of the caiegrdrts. If MP980’s CLI and PGI ink costs decrease in the future (hopefully real soon!), then the rating would definitely increase to 5 stars.Thank you Amazon reviewers for all your comments. Because I thoroughly reviewed these products (online and in-store) and the associated commentaries, I now know that it’s best to order these inks through Amazon (until some other seller offers lower pricing). I will also be sure to keep extra inks on hand;so I never have to experience down-time with my MP980.I love the Canon PIXMA MP980, and knew beforehand what to expect as far as print quality and associated costs. So I have no complaints about the printer itself (other than its costly inks). But, I do think one gets what they pay for, and I do tend to go for better quality items.Thank you Amazon and Amazon Reviewers.
