Interest in newly manufactured ImageWriter II color ribbons?

[GameMan370]

I’m potentially looking to get a batch of newly manufactured color ribbons produced for the ImageWriter II. It would require a large purchase on my behalf from the manufacture so I thought to gauge interest from the community if anyone might be interested in purchasing some afterwards? I’m estimating final cost to be ~$40 CAD plus shipping.

As a side, I am aware that MacEffects produce these too but I’ve been waiting on their list for a while and reading conflicting info online if they will ever produce another batch so I thought to have some produced just in case.

Yes, Please! I'm writing a newspaper using my Mac SE on a low budget and my ImageWriter II ribbon is parched. It's low on dot matrix paper too but I can find that if you've got the ribbons. I'll put a nice column about you in the newspaper.
Does $40 CAD = cash after delivery? Never heard of CAD.
Don't wait for delayed promises from others, just get a batch I'm sure others will bite. Put me in for 5 ribbons please. No rush, I'm using a Style Writer 2500 on another computer for now.

40 Canadian Dollars, or roughly 28.78 US Dollars.

Sounds good!
I’ll keep you posted, it may take a few weeks once all is said and done (manufacturing, shipping, etc.)
CAD is Canadian Dollars

Perfect!
I just sent payment to the manufacturer, so they should hopefully start producing some time next week once payment clears.

Great news!

ooh. I've been looking for a reason to get an ImageWriter II, wasn't certain if it would just be a brick without ribbons!

I will purchase 5 ribbons. Thank you.

Excellent!
They apparently shipped out this past week from the manufacturer, so hopefully I will receive them soon. I’ll keep everyone updated!

I'm interested as well in two ribbons, depending on shipping $. Just set up the printer the other day!

Thanks for doing this!

Count me in too, and this on the premise that cost of shipping to Europe is not horrible.

 

[Scott Baret]

I'll take some!! We go through them like crazy in the lab when people print Kid Pix drawings (which is a good thing).

 

[Torbar]

I'd be in for 1

Sounds good everyone!
They are scheduled to be delivered to me this week. Once I receive them, I’m gonna do a test on one to make sure everything is good and then we can go from there. I’m hoping shipping isn’t too expensive for everyone, I’ll try my best to get the most cost effective method.

Been over a week, any update?

I apologize for the delay, been a very busy week at work. I have received the ink cartridges now! They look good but I just want to test one out to make sure it prints well. Otherwise, I’ll be posting an update Monday to Tuesday this week for everything to start ordering! Thanks for your patience

 

[Byte Knight]

I'll take two please!

 

[GameMan370]

Sorry for the wait everyone!
I have received my shipment of the newly manufactured ImageWriter II colour ribbons!
I have run one of them through the printer self test and all looks good.
I wanted to test print a picture, but it appears I don’t have any working machines to do this at the moment, so the self-test print is the best I can do for the time being.
I have added pictures for everyone to see.

I will send everyone a PM who has shown interest in them, and then I can get you a shipping quote.
As I mentioned in my last post, I’ve been very busy at work recently (and still am), so if I have a bit of a delay in responding, that is why, but don’t worry, I will respond to everyone.

Just to confirm, the cost will be $40 Canadian plus shipping (and any other potential import fees).

Payments accepted are Interact e-Transfer (Canada only), PayPal or Wise
