    Well, had to buy a new, cheap printer to replace my old one, again. I've got several cartridges that I cannot use now.
    Does anyone need or want these?
    THEY ARE NOT GENUINE EPSON...but compatible cartridges that I have been using with no problems whatsoever.
    EPSON part #: 273 XL Made for XP-600 series printers, and others
    4 BLACK
    7 PB
    3 CYAN
    3 YELLOW
    2 MAGENTA
    I do not want anything for them!...and I'll even ship them to you, if you're in the US.
    They go in the trash, otherwise. Send me a message if any of you are interested. Take care.
    I did this once before and didn't get in any trouble, so let me know if this is not right to post.

    Why don't you just take them to the nearest CHARITY shop when you are next out?
    As long as you leave a note about what printer models they fit.
    It's like making a valuable donation to a good cause without costing you a cent.

    So many places in the US take ink cartridges. Never put them in the trash.
    I look to e-cycle as much as possible.

    I know if you are near a staples or best buy store they take them.

    I think some places like computer shops all so take them as well.

    I'm old, but I know how to get rid of things, except ex wives and dead bodies. They just seem to pile up and clutter the house.;)o_O
    Just thought someone could use them. I'll wait a couple of more days, and then they'll go in the TRASH.

    You must have charity shops where you live and have to shop? If you were happy to pay postage to send them to someone you can take a bus. If you have neighbours who go to the local shops, they could drop them off for you. If you can get on the internet then those options above are easy.
    Putting them in the trash means they will pollute your own environment as they will go in landfill most likely, or incinerated so the atmosphere gets polluted. Ink Jet cartridges are FULL of toxins.
    But naturally, if you don't care a hoot about the environment then fine.

    If you message me I will give you a p.o. box # to send to. I don't have a printer but I will give them to the local "Helping Hands" charity which asks for these every week. Thanks!

    Good gosh. They go in the trash! Take that for whatever you think it means. Just thought someone could use them.

    To post them to an anonymous person here, you have to go to a post office, exactly the same as going to a local charity shop.
    The message to you is:

    and probably should be fined. ;) Take that!

    Adding to it by throwing a bag full of almost 20 unopened/unused inkjet cartridges full of toxins into the general waste will make it worse, and it is lazy, pig-headed and irresponsible.
