There are a number of less than honest sellers who are misleading potential buyers about Lexmark ink jet cartridges. Lexmark has at least two different levels of cartridges that they package and sell for their printers. The numbers for the normal full ink capacity cartridges always ends in a zero. They do make a series of ink cartridges that are intended to be included with new printers that only have enough ink in them for initial set-up and testing. The number for these cartridges never ends in a zero. These less than honest sellers are misleading people by showing a picture of the full capacity cartridge and even including the model number in their title. If you take the time to carefully read their auction description, you discover that they are actually offering to sell you the low capacity cartridges. Avoid being hoodwinked by these less than honest sellers by carefully reading the full action description and make no assumptions when you first look at the picture and the title. If you have been mislead and inadvertently purchased one of these low capacity cartridges, file a formal complaint with e-Bay and PayPal. If enough people complain, then maybe e-Bay will finally stop looking the other way and take the appropriate action to remove these sellers if they do not clean up their act.
