HP's sweetheart

I saw on the right side of the banner HP, dedicated to the cartridges. Here is his brief squeeze storyboard.

I really, really want to believe! However, it so happened that at work, we just still use refilling cartridges. Let's take advantage of the offer of HP, and take a look, so to speak, with the armed eye. For real savings.
So, following the link to the HP website, I chose to compare a couple of the most popular (for us) cartridges.
This is the C7115 designed for HP LaserJet 1000w / 1005w / 1200/1220/3300 series printers.
And Q5949A designed for HP LaserJet 1320 printers.

The button “where to buy” kindly prompts the price of these cartridges in a certain company.
C7115 - 2222 rubles (approximately $ 76)
Q5949A - 2709 rub. (approximately $ 93)

The account courtesy of the tankers is about $ 10 for refueling this type of cartridges. Scotch tape for pasting the chip - for free.

We set the volume of the party refueling - 30 pieces. (15 + 15).

Well, suppose, let 20% of refills fail, i.e. dead cartridge (although, in fact,% is much less). This is a very evil attitude that has never been encountered in practice.

Total, the cost of refueling - 30 * $ 10 = $ 300, then subtract 20% of breakdowns. and we will buy new ones instead. It turns out 6 cartridges (3 + 3) = $ 76 * 3 + $ 93 * 3 = $ 507. Already an impressive figure, just to replace 20% of the park of cartridges, is it not?

So, the total cost of our "left" service will be $ 300 + $ 507 = $ 807

And now let's calculate option number 2 - dear to HP. We throw away We dispose of 30 empty cartridges, and we buy 30 new ones (15 + 15) instead. $ 76 * 15 + $ 93 * 15 = $ 2,535.

Total difference will be $ 1,728.

Refilled cartridges - imaginary savings?
