Epson 1290 compatible inks

[Autumn]

When using compatible inks I have used 7day shop for my Epson 1290 printer. They have recently increased in price quite a lot and I wonder what anyone else uses and if they are any good and any cheaper.

The 5 colour ink cartridge is now is £3.99 delivered - it has risen from 99p to £1.99 to £2.99 and now £3.99. I know it is still cheap, but find that I never use one completely as one of the reds always blocks up and I have to waste the whole cartridge and install a new one. That was OK at £1.99 but now it is getting silly.

I don't mind paying that much if I can get to use the whole cartridge.

Don't suggest Epson - I have just had a set and whilst they do last longer and are slightly more vibrant, for my purpose they are too expensive.

The blacks are £2.49 delivered.
