Group buy Inktec Powerchrome K3 - Europe

[nertog]

Dear fellow printergeeks,

In the quest for a good replacement inkset for my Epson R3000 I decided to give Inktec's Powerchrome K3 inks a chance. Just like most of you I have difficulties finding the inks in quantities less than 1l per colour so I decided to set up a little group buy.

The Spanish distributor was very helpful and made an attractive offer: 55 euro per liter delivered to my doorstep. Personally I need 300ml of each ink, minus MK. This leaves 700ml (and 1000ml MK if there is enough interest) up for sale.

I will need to buy bottles, caps and boxes. All added together this would total to:

50 euro

for a set of 8 x 100ml Inktec Powerchrome K3 inks (no MK). If there is enough interest I can order a bottle of MK as well, of course. Standard shipping (Spanish Correos) anywhere in the EU would be 13 euro. There will be 7 sets available.

Leave a reply and PM if interested!

Warm greetings from Barcelona,
Wim

That seems to be a very reasonable offer. If it is really the "new powerchrome k3" (there is or was an older version I think) - I would buy one set from you.

It is indeed the "new Powerchrome K3", Martin. Let's see if we can get a bit more interest in this thread.

- 6 sets available!

NICE of you to do this
I would have done this by now but since I have a registered business first buying ink and then selling it for no profit PLUS the added tax would make clearly no sense

I am counting on some reviews on the ink and also your local price per Litre is awesome
most of the "powerchrome" inks are not aviable at the moment I have no clue wy already asked inktec germany

Well, a registered business has to make money of course (taxes are paid by the customers, I suppose). I called around a bit and got a nice offer from Inktec. The group buy is just a way to take advantage of the offer and besides that, make some other people happy.

You are very welcome to try a set as well and review it, I still need a few participants before we can call this a success

Still 4 sets available

Push---there must be some more pigment users---otherwise you have to pay

- double or triple of 50€ ! (from the only source which offers 100ml at all)

..according to pharmacist it is one of the best 3rd party inks for epson K3..
..should be worth a try..

Obviously there are not, and if the ink is that good then I would recommend that one or more of the interested parties take more than one lot of the inks, that way the uptake shortage can be eliminated and everybody would be happy..
