If anyone has bought G&G brand inkjet cartridges they are supposedly
filled with Formulabs ink. These are the cartridges sold by
88inkjets.com as being Formulabs filled.

Consequently, I've found several sources for G&G cartridges in Canada.
The prices range from around $4 to $8 CDN, or more, depending on the
website.

Are you saything that G&G is a brand and that it is filled with
Formulabs ink. And you can find many suppliers for the G&G brand. Who
are the suppliers?
 
I went to the site below. There was no description or specification on
who G&G is. Apparently they sell private labeled ink and paper so I
doubt if G&G is a manufacturer. It costs many millions of dollars to
manufacturer and distribute paper goods. Companies like International
Paper who also own Hamermill and Georgia Pacific. None of these
companies make ink.

It does not state what kind of ink they sell nor do they give
specifications. They use the useless word compatible. On the Canon
BCI-3eBK ink, it is supposed to be pigmented ink and it does not even
say that.

There are also no comparative US prices, shipping or terms.

Thanks for trying to let me know. I would like to find out what G&G is
about and who sells them in the US. Usually a REAL BRAND is sold by
many dealers and also in many retail outlets. Many types of Sanford
products are sold all over and many Kodak branded products are also sold
all over.

Yes, these are the Formulabs filled cartridges I ordered from
88inkjets.com. They are G&G brand.

G&G (Ninestar Image Co. Ltd.) in China is a major printer consumable
maker, cartridges only, they don't make the inks. They seem to import
those from the States.
And you can find many suppliers for the G&G brand. Who
are the suppliers?

I've found dealers in Canada, US, Europa, and Australasia that carry
G&G cartridges. Don't ask me their names, I didn't bookmark any 'cept
one near me in Canada - www.piloshop.ca. They have better prices
than some of the other Canadian dealers. But I wish they offered
discounts for multiple purchases, like 88inkjets.com.

As I understand you the brand of the ink is Formulabs and the brand of
the empty cartridge is G&G and some organization bought both and
refilled them or had them refilled and is selling them under the G&G name.

G&G is a complete outfit. They design and make the empties. Some have
patents: the spongeless. They fill, seal and blister pack them. They'll
even private label cartridges for you if you're interested in competing
with Alothofthings. . . . Go for it, Measekite, show them how it's done.

I don't know if they make it. I'll not make a guess. But it is sold under
their G&G Brand name.

Who cares. You can only buy BCI-3eBK as pigmented. Does your Canon OEM
ink tell you on the box it's pigmented when you see it in the store?

Well, here's the terms: they won't sell to you, Measekite. I'm dead
serious. But then it really doesn't matter, you'd never buy online
anyway.

That is not true many of the BCI-3eBK 3rd party cartridges are filled
with a high density dye black ink, instead of the pigment ink that they
should have. We had to start making our own BCI-3eBK with a pigment ink
because none of the 3rd party distributors we asked could consistently
guarantee that there would be pigment ink in the cartridges.

How can I test my inks to see if I've been "slipped" dye instead of
pigmented BCI-3eBK?

I buy many of the parts that I build computers with online. You are
making an ASSumption. :-P

And don't they sell to the US.
