where is the cheapest price in sublimation ink in 4oz bottles? I would like to find a site that sells has the lowest price. I would appreciate the help. thanks.
you are not going to get cheap sublimation ink...TOG is the least expensive but not cheap, but getting the correct ICC profile is harder.
I have followed your posts and I just don't think you can get good commercially viable products looking for cheap...quality does have a price with both buying and selling.
Charles,
what I mean is if anyone knows a site with the lowest price of sublimation ink? like $80 bottles of 4oz ink and so forth. I know already its not going to come cheap I'm getting a C88 from epson, bulk ink system from ebay and I'm trying to find a good price range for ink and papers and I'm asking if anyone knows of anyplace where they buy their supplies.
In the past I have purchased cheap sublimation blanks before and I have to tell you I regreted it , it was a waste of money and time the thing is people will pay for good work over and over, you put out a cheap product and you only get that one sale and thats it no repeats, so what I am trying to say is when it comes to sublimation there is no cheap way out.
The problem with sublimation ink from other than Sawgrass and TOG is that trying to get the ICC profile correct is very hard..sometime virtually impossible. Sawgrass has artainium and sublijet and they control prices pretty tightly...I am not aware of any discounts on those two. TOG (SUBLIMATION INK AT IT'S BEST) is cheaper for their sublimation ink but I had some difficulty in getting my ICC profile done..finally worked but I went back to Artainium afterwards
ive been using the TOG inks for a while and its working wonderfully. the icc profiles took a night of tinkering and changing a few thing here and there. but im getting wonderful results.
I have to agree with what charles has said in that there is cheap ink and then there is quality that customers want.
I use Rotech Dye Sublimation ink here in the UK and its not cheap, there is other types that are not the best and are made up inks if you ask me and i have gone with what the members here have said to get.
Its not cheap but i can honestly say its the finished quality that make a lot of difference and i`ve already ordered 4 x bottles ready to re-fill the carts i use in my D88 when they go down.
They are not cheap by any means especialy here in the UK as its just cost me on 220 english pounds for the four re-fill containers.
But i`m only useing the dyesubli ink for cups and mugs and hard survices ect so it will last longer for me and my use for it.
I notice that your in the US tonynjanet, and i know the majority of members here on the forum are from there and also know from reading that there are many great places you can get it from and a lot cheaper than here in the UK, just check the Preferred Vendors that people use, i only wish i could get the ink at the prices in america and then i would be very happy.
Just my view on the matter for what its worth as i`m new to this buisness but learning all the time.
