I signed up to sell ink cartridges and finally received a site they put together.
It was so butchered up I couldn't fix it.
Has anyone had luck with their ink program? Payouts?
Any info will help me to determine if their affiliate program is worth the effort.
Thanks. smileys/smiley17.gif

I'm still waiting for RxMedical to open up the program.


I thinking of opening up my own inkjet cartridge site. Could make a hell of a lot more that way. Find a cartridge distributor/wholesaler buy asome stock and an 800 number, presto, inkjet business.

IMHO, You need to find someone who will dropship for you. I believe that rxmedone is also doing the same. Most likely they have their frontend integrate with some dropshipper's backend. That way no need to buy the stock upfront and maintain an inventory at least in the starting.

You would make more money filling your own. I used to refill laser toner cartridges. Made a killing. Cost to fill $5-6 Sell $75-125 sweet. (but messy)

I've been doing a little bit of searching, but I can't find a cartridge dropshipper. Have any suggestions.

I don't have any dropshipper in mind. I found this dropshipper's directory on the overture: http://www.info1.mydssd.com/wwb/index.asp


Problem is that you have to pay to access this directory. smileys/smiley6.gifThere are some inkjet related suppliers listed on this site as shown by free trial option but who exactly are they, there is no way of seeing without paying and there a ton of affiliate sites promoting this directory.


Other than that a better way will be to extract this info from someonw who is already in this info. I said "extract" because people don't like to share such info without any incentive.


People are already using this business model. Check this page (http://www.cartridgehq.com/aboutcartridgehq.htm). Contact the people like the owner of that site to see if he is willing to share some info. I will keep looking and let you know if I find something.

Save your money and time. That directory is a piece of junk. None of the dropshippers will give you good prices. Besides, you can find most of them by searching the web--just enter certain product names with the term "drop ship" and keep scrolling past the 10 pages of spam for that directory.


Also, there are no inkjet dropshippers in that directory.





BTW, I have rxmed template, and it gets no sales.

You say "none of the dropshippers will give you good prices". Have you ever tried any business based on that model or inkjet refills in particular? or is it just a wild assumption? I'd like to hear from you if you have any specifics to share.

Not real crazy about drop shippers with membership fees.
