Hard to believe the TRASH on the deals page

[rajatQ2]

Thank you apex and all for this site, but I'm getting a little ticked off at the stuff that is appearing on the deals page.

Specifically, 123Inkjets.com on today's 'Deals'. That store is awful, and there are resellerratings.com to back me up:
http://www.resellerratings.com/seller1753.html

The store sells shoddy products at least half othe time, as you can see.

I know there is a commission coming in (qksrv.net) from any sales, but why recommend such a lousy store?? That's not cool. I had 2 lousy experiences where they sent me bad cartriges and took more than a month each time to send me replacements. I resolved never to buy there again.

Just my $.02 but I think quality, not quantity, of deals provided per day needs some improvements. thx

This is definitely the wrong forum to post your comments.

The deals that Apex chooses to put up on the deals page is up to them. The deals here in the forum are up to us. Let's focus on how to make things better here rather than attack Apex. And personally, I've ordered many times from 123inkjets and have nothing but praise for their products and customer service.

Some people find this as a deal. Remember, Apex servers MANY MANY types of people, not JUST us tech nerds. That said, because of the christmas season (I guess) there have been little good deals around. As a whole, the deals have dwindled in the past year. With a page that is updated daily as much as G|A is, it makes it even harder. We should be grateful the webpage is updated on a constant basis.

rajatQ2: Thanks for your feedback on the merchants. We do listen to complaints about them and "excommunicate" them as necessary. It's not worth it to us to make a couple of bucks on a lousy merchant. Yours was the first complaint that I have heard of for 123Inkjets. These online inkjet stores do not sell the same kind of quality cartridges as the OEMs. They simply cater to a different crowd - specifically those who want to print out volume and don't care so much about having the best quality. When I print photos, I always use the original Canon inkcarts for my S9000.

I'm sorry about your bad experience at that merchant. We will keep this in mind and continue to monitor our emails for similar complaints.

This is where I get all my inkcarts for my i320, they're great. Just because it doesnt work out for you doesnt mean its not gonna help someone else.:rolleyes:

A pat on the back to the folks in charge around here. It seems that whenever a thread like this pops up that is critical of something, be it deals, reviews, popups, or whatever it gets responded to both very quickly and intelligently. A very nice job inded is done in responding to problems. :thumb:

I don't like 123 inkjets either just because I got flooded with emails about buying ink carts from other places soon after. Now I just wait for coupon that G|A puts up for Staples or Office Depot and buy the ink carts(I got a Canon photo printer that takes 6 carts). I think 6 carts comes out to be less that 10 bucks after the coupon.
