Default Epson printer ink

Can anyone recommend somewhere to buy this online. I recently bought an Epson R360 printer because my previous Epson ink dried in the head and buggered the printer. I guess this was because I had been a cheapskate and bought compatibles. Because of this I am only going to buy genuine Epson inks.

I found through Epson online the multipack costs £37+post, PC world is £40, anyone know anywhere cheaper ???

This is my 3rd Epson printer, the last two I used compatibles with and ended up binning them as the ink in the heads dried up and wouldn't print. Teach me to be a tight git !

Black?

Try here http://www.inkclub.com/index.asp?CtryNo=826&LangNo=1

You can get a free cartridge (black) on there, you have to pay the postage, plus you can get £9 back for doing it through quidco. Thats right, you get £6 and a free ink cartridge

I have the same problem with HP, got a HP PSC 950, and the bloody thing won't work with compatibles, even though they are not chipped.
Colour was around £55, black was £30!!

Be vaery wary of ebay. I have purchased 'genuine' Epson in the past which have in fact been copies markd up. If you do a search on ggole you'll find its quite common ! Hence the reason for me looking else where
