41875 2002-04-04 19:42:00 Susan, can you repeat even if in short the guts of your question about disposing of inkjet cartridges, your post and all the replies down the page have disappeared.

Off memory you are in chch are you not?

There is a company in Barrington that does refills and aftermarkets, they might take your old ones.

41876 2002-04-04 22:53:00 Gordon, I can't get back to my post either :-(

I was wondering if there was somewhere to take my old empty HP cartridges instead of putting them in the rubbish bin.

Yes, I'm in ChCh and I'll look up the Barrington place if I can, but without a name it might be tricky. I don't actually want them refilled for myself, just have them recycled instead of wasted.

Call Colin at NZ Shareware,
114a Conway Street, Barrington.
Phone 03-3323143
I think his son now runs the business more than Colin but same address, same setup.

They deal in refills and after market replacements for epson and I think HP as well.
A call will confirm it and whether they want empty cartridges for refilling for other people.

As a comparsion, we use epson, when we were still in chch and I wish now we had stocked up on some, after market new cartridges for the epson 440 and 640 was $20 Black and $30 Colour compared to 50 or 60+ new from moorhouse ave.

Let me know how you get on.
