Businesses often end up with surplus OEM ink cartridges after printer upgrades or over-ordering. Specialized buyback companies like Toner Connect make selling in bulk fast and profitable. They handle quotes, provide free insured shipping, and issue quick payments—far more efficient than listing each cartridge individually on marketplaces.

After upgrading your printers, you may have unused ink or toner. The best way to sell depends on your quantity, urgency, and how hands-on you want to be.
Best for: Businesses and resellers with large inventories.
Advantages: One quote for all items, simplified process, free insured shipping, fast payment.
Example: Submit your list for a quote through Toner Connect.
Best for: Individuals with a few cartridges.
Process: Create listings, manage inquiries, ship items, and pay platform fees.
Downside: Slower and more effort-intensive than bulk buyers.
Best for: Common cartridge models and small quantities.
Where: Facebook Marketplace, Craigslist, or local computer stores.
Note: Limited buyer pool and typically lower returns.
A bit of prep can increase your payout and speed up the process.
Inspect: Ensure OEM seals are intact and boxes undamaged.
List: Create an inventory spreadsheet with model, brand, quantity, and box condition.
Photograph: Take clear photos of each box to prove authenticity and build trust.
Cartridge prices depend on:
Brand: OEM brands (HP, Canon, Brother) pay more than generics.
Condition: Sealed, pristine boxes earn higher offers.
Expiration Date: Older cartridges or near-expiry stock lose value.
Model Demand: Popular models are more profitable.
High-demand OEM cartridges in perfect condition can yield 30–60% of retail value.
Reputable buyers provide prepaid, insured shipping labels, so you never pay out of pocket.
Use sturdy boxes and padding to prevent damage in transit.
For payment, choose reliable methods such as PayPal, ACH transfer, or check.
⚠️ Avoid scams: Legitimate buyers will never ask you to cover shipping costs and always communicate professionally.

The main buyers include:
Large enterprises maintaining printer fleets.
Small to mid-sized businesses seeking discounted OEM supplies.
Resellers replenishing secondary market stock.
All rely on authentic, sealed OEM cartridges for dependable performance.
Opened or Expired Cartridges: Have no resale value; recycle instead.
OEM vs. Compatible: OEM cartridges are preferred for quality and reliability.
Process Duration: Selling through buyback companies is quick, often completed in about a week.
Legality: Reselling genuine OEM cartridges is legal under the “First Sale Doctrine.”
