People trying to sell me toner!!

Does anybody else here work in IT?

I swear, at LEAST once a day I get calls with the "buy toner from me because I'm better" jist to them.

What is it with these people? Is selling toner really THAT profitable of a business?

I swear it's worse then getting spam email

Re: People trying to sell me toner!!

They say toner and inkjets are one of the most profitable things on the market. I shoulda studied copiers in college instead of making copies of my ass to show everyone.

Think about it - ink costs nothing and a piece of plastic. $28.99

Re: People trying to sell me toner!!

I think it must make someone some big bucks, cuz they sure push the toner. Al I just don't think that "toner sales" is something that I would be proud of. I mean you may make money, but would you tell people that is what you do?

Re: People trying to sell me toner!!

We must get a couple of calls a week for this and they do not believe in the idea that even if it costs me a couple dollars more I am going to support the stores in my mall and those that help support us, it is a foreign concept to them.

"Yeah, I sell computer components, but I won toner sales of the year 2004!" Now that is something to be proud of.

Re: People trying to sell me toner!!

Hey now - when have you ever looked for my trophy? Besides, not hard to find if you know where to look.....Watch out so it don't poke you in the eye.

Re: People trying to sell me toner!!

Toner is the ink cartridge thing that goes into laser fax machines, printers, copiers...

Teachers and office workers would know of the wonders of toner, especially the headaches it causes when it's almost out
