5 out of 5 stars HP Photo Value Pack   August 15, 2008

I was hoping for a quick and easy way to purchase what I wanted, without actually looking for it, or going to get it. (Yes, I realize I have lofty goals, but please forgive me, for I am old.)
Anyway, this HP Photo Value Pack was exactly what I was looking for (even though I suspected, and amazon reviews verified, there are more economical ways to buy ink and paper)... and amazon.com made the transaction quick and easy. (In fact, delivery was almost too fast, but I find it hard to complain about that, so please forget I mentioned it.)

This is not the first time I have been totally satisfied with amazon.com.
If they will just start selling groceries, I won't have to leave the house, and that would suit me just fine.

This item met my need at the time. The saying, you get what you pay for holds true. I brought this item knowing full well that you don't get as much ink in the containers as you do when you buy the non value packs that cost more money. I did the research and it is a fact that these value packs are not completely filled by the manufactures. But I knew what I was getting. Sometime you have to opt for value over quantity. But this is genuine Vivera HP Inks. Just in smaller quantity.


4 out of 5 stars Sneaky, but still a bargain.   June 18, 2008
As has been said before, these aren't the same size as regular 02 tanks. However, this package is a lot cheaper than regular 02 tanks! A combo pack at Sam's club with all 6 inks is about $60, vs. $35 for these with 150 sheets of Advanced paper. Just because the tanks aren't full doesn't make this a bad deal. Prints on Advanced paper are nearly as good as "Premium Plus" paper, but dry much more quickly. There is a slight loss in sharpness and contrast, but it does not show color dithering.

There is not enough ink (especially yellow) to make all 150 prints, but this is still probably the cheapest way to do photo printing on HP printers that use 02 ink. They look excellent, the paper has good gloss, and the cost per sheet is lower than the supplies if sold separately. It's not quite as thick as Premium Plus, so the prints don't quite feel like "pictures" the way Premium Plus does.

As a whole, this is still a good deal for the money. It is sufficient to print most of the pack of paper of excellent pictures.

I ordered the wrong HP cartridge. Tried several times to call with no luck. I e-mailed them and they got back after a couple of days. They said they would credit the shipping charge and send me a mailer label to return the item. They did credit the shipping but 2 weeks later I have not received a return label.


2 out of 5 stars hp "scams" customers; not full ink tanks   March 22, 2008
  3 out of 3 found this review helpful

Thought this was an excellent value when I ordered it. BUT . . . nowhere is the information shown that you are NOT getting full "tanks" of ink. I purchased two of these packages because of the "bundle" price. What one receives is a bit less of a bargain than first imagined: the custom ink cartridges are standard hp units -- but filled to only 60%- 70% of their normal capacity. I.e., will print ~ 150 photos instead of ~240... (Note -- this was confirmed by hp support after an hour-long phone call!) Shame on hp for perpetrating this fraud on its customers! Shame on Amazon for not doing its homework and passing on this fraud w/o warning its customers. CAVEAT EMPTOR (buyer beware) is not the slogan I have associated with Amazon on other products and past purchases!
