I'm looking for tanks without ink for my Canon i850 and I don't want
to spend $10US per tank! Inkproducts.com used to have them but I
can't find them on their web site now.

BCI-3 color tanks and BCI-6 color tanks (same) can be had from
atlanticinkjet.com for $2.50 US each. Canadians can order them
by clicking on their Canadian website link for $3.00 CAD each.
Unfortunately, the large BCI-3e Black tank is NOT available.

I have some and they're quite nice. They have a soft rubber plug at the
top for the fill hole and they have that large orange bottom clip (that
you've probably seen if you've bought compatibles) at the bottom. It's
handy as it just clips on with no need of rubber bands. Sorry, I haven't
used them yet as to be able to tell you how they work. But the price is
downright friendly! :-)

MAYBE THEY LEAK
 
These are nice tanks, they last longer than OEM and come with clips and
rubber plugs:

I bought some ink from this outfit about 1-1/2 years ago on the
recommendation of someone in this group. I don't use the printer
*that much* and I haven't had a single head plugup (unlike some
previous ink I purchased allegedly formulated for the i850). It's
been great. The color is spot on, too. At that time I don't think
they were selling empty carts, or at least, I didn't see them. Based
on the quality of their ink and your recommendation, I think I'll give
them a try for the tanks.

Tanks. ;-)
