[bodytext] => Its known as a freebie buy
We all take the bait, and heres why;
They sell something cheap;
That will cost lots to keep.
The after sale profits sky high.
Printers are bargains we think.
Until it comes time to buy ink.
At two grand a quart;
To fill that ink port;
Those savings just went down the sink.

Aint that the truth.
this applies to anything in this world.
whether it be the short lived printer, the house
we got a great deal on which we later realize that
the realtor lied about, or the car we just bought
that in 3 yrs and a day after the warranty expires
will cost more to repair than the car is worth.
Brilliant as always and so full of truth. :))))

I second Rich on this.
I guess one could look at it this way. Sure sooner or later you/'/re going to get hosed but at least you saved a little upfront. Today the door is always open for other suppliers unlike yesteryear. |
