How can you sell your JetMaster new compatible replacement print cartridges for so much less than genuine original replacement print cartridges?
• The manufacturing costs for OEM replacement print cartridges and generic compatible replacement print cartridges are actually quite comparable; there is a minor difference in the cost of packaging (OEM replacement print cartridges generally have more packaging materials). The cost of the packaging, however, doesn’t even begin to account for the difference in price. The reality is, the OEM replacement print cartridge manufacturers simply have and maintain higher profit margins. Brother, Canon, Epson, HP, Lexmark and other ink jet manufacturers claim they need these high profit margins to finance research and development, however this is the same argument the pharmaceutical corporations use to artificially inflate prescription drug prices in the United States for items that costs significantly less in Canada and other non-US locations. Likewise, you can find OEM replacement print cartridges at significantly lower prices outside of the U.S., where the OEM manufacturers have less control
