I've purchased directly from HP Store (Got Work Discount) have bad experience with eBuyer with their services but they are the cheapest available seller. I do not know if this promotion is for re-seller only, I will update this post when my trade-in gone through.

Just had an email come through yesterday saying my cashback has been approved and will be paid out shortly. My printer was picked up on 7th September so looks like approx 3 weeks processing time.

The only thing bugs me is my Epson WF2510 has only been used around 10 times since buying it 10 months ago. It's as new with original box and plenty of brand new spare ink cartridges.But every time you change the ink, you have to head clean the printer too. Will HP or who ever tests it be able to solve this or will it cause a problem with the trade in!

What a great scheme. Either during setup or separately by going to the instant ink website enroll for instant ink. During the process put in the referral code from ebuyer UK2FREE and you get 2 months FREE and then put in the refer-a-friend code j78vP and you too will have 3 months free ink. Both totally legitimate. It worked got me. Of course at the end of the 3 months you'll have to consider whether it's worth the money to pay but you will have at least had 3 months worth of ink. Personally I'll be working out how to refill them ...... but in the meantime ..... Printer £40 - Most excellent 3 months free ink. Even better. This deal deserves more heat.

28 Aug 17#60
Got my one yesterday. The ebuyer invoice doesn't appear to have the serial number on it but there is space in the online form to put it in. I guess it depends on how picky the person processing the trade in is as to whether they reject it because there is no serial number on the invoice. The toner or ink cartridges do need to be in the box (not in the printer) but they dont necessarily need to be from the original manufacturer. Does anyone have a referral code for free ink ? Please PM me :-)

My trade-in is still in validation status, I have picked the Tuesday (22nd) for my preferred date for pick up. I'm not sure if they have loads of people doing it hence the delay, or they are slow in handling this promotion. Just playing a waiting game ATM.

23 Aug 17#47
Did they pick up yours ?
Ph0enix
23 Aug 17#46
Their terms actually states those requirement, I do not believe HP themselves do the checks it passed on to another company. I've bought cheap ink cartridges to ensure that the trade in works otherwise they keep the printer. It's up to you to send a non working printer but they only can pick up your old printer once.
Can just find/buy a used crappy printer, if not just get buy a cheap printer that's under £40 and avoid this deal. This printer will have more durable print duty, has duplex scanning and printing which isn't normal in a standard consumer printer.
Ph0enix
23 Aug 17#45
Just having £100 for your printer is too good to miss out on replacing the crappy printer that most people have laying around. You are more than welcomed to try both and give us a verdict.

We have one of these printers at work. print quality is fine, but it is very slow to print the first page, up to 30 seconds or so.
How does the free ink offer work? Can I register the ink offer and get 2 months supply for free then cancel the subscription?
Ph0enix to inonefly
21 Aug 17#10
Instant ink works as a subscription offer, let's say you put your print allowance 1000 per month. You are allowed to print upto 1000 per month within that time you get ink sent to you when your printer is getting low. You must be connected to the internet, and you won't get ink sent out until you run almost dry. That is what I read....
hcc27 to Ph0enix
21 Aug 17#12
Corret
Correct, however the highest no of pages you can go for is 300/month, their 'frequent plan'. Instant Ink does not cater to office-type workflows, they will lose a lot of money that way.
Ph0enix to hcc27
21 Aug 17#16
That's true, I didn't think the print allowance was low. But then I don't print much for myself, I've got the HP 7740 which isn't available for instant ink.
EndlessWaves to inonefly
21 Aug 17#20
No, the catridges sent as part of the offer only work while you're subscribing
You can cancel at any time and your sub will end at the end of that month (so cancel after first month and sub will terminate within the free 2 months).
You can use code FREEINK to get an extra free month, it will stack with any free months that come with the printer. If you know anyone that is an existing subscriber you can ask them (not allowed on forum threads) for a referral code and get another extra month. Easiest way is to enter these during printer setup and instant ink setup.
If you get the printer its definitely worth singing up for instant ink and rinsing the free months. Depending on how much you print and what you print it can still work out competitive against buying carts once the trial expires. For example if you print lots of full colour pages and will roughly hit the plan page limit, its worth considering. If you print text/black and white predominantly and won't use up the plan pages, probably not worth it.
Ph0enix to Mentos
21 Aug 17#22
Please note that the following HP Setup cartridges Black: ~800 Cyan/yellow/magenta: ~490
HP 953 Black: ~1000 Cyan/yellow/magenta: 700
HP 953XL Black: ~2000 Cyan/yellow/magenta: 1600
HP 957XL Black: ~3000
You may not even get new cartridge sent if you do not hit the low level ink requirement when printing with the starter pack. If you are planning to use the HP Instant Ink subscription, there are 3 packages
£1.99/month 50 pages
£3.49/month 100 pages
£7.99/month 300 pages
You can end the subscription at any time
Mentos to Ph0enix
21 Aug 17#25
In my experience they sent carts straight away, despite the starter carts still having ink. But we got the 8710 with ~£80 instant ink credit plus 3 months free trial, so perhaps thats why they sent the carts.
Its worth bearing in mind the instant ink carts will be disabled once your subscription ends. From what I understand your starter carts will become instant ink carts, therefore it may be worth rinsing them until they are almost empty before signing up for the trial. I don't believe theres any way to sign up without an active cart in the printer, but I didn't look to hard as wasn't too bothered about the starter carts.

I can get this printer straight from HP (via employer discount) at £130. The HP page says only £50 cashback though if I were to order from HP and then use the Global Promotions link to request the £100 trade in, would this work? What do you folks think?
Ph0enix to chada
21 Aug 17#18
That's what I'm currently doing, the HP website would only display the cashback. My submission is currently waiting to be process, and I have purchased it via the HP Store. I can let you know if it does go through, as I'm not 100% sure why they don't display it.
But their printers on the HP store are going out of stock....when I bought the 7740 (next day delivery) it is now OOS , and the 8720 (next day delivery) is now delayed delivery.
chada to Ph0enix
21 Aug 17#19
Yes, not sure why they don't display it - hope it is not a reseller only promo. I guess I could always order it and if HP refuse the cash back, I could return it (don't open it until the CB is approved). Do let me know how your claim goes. Thanks :smile:

There are two others cashback £50 or trade-in printer for £100. Search for "HP Global Promotions", there is a trade-in tab oddly they don't display it on the website I had to search for it.
hcc27
21 Aug 17#11
OP this is a cracking find, however your post does not make it clear that the price is reduced down to £39.98 with the promotion (rather gives the impression it is £139.98 WITH the promotion). You'd probably get more hotness if you edit it.
What an incredible price for an office-grade printer. Mostly due to the very low labour and raw material costs wherever HP has outsourced its manufacturing to (probably the PRC). A certain leader in the US wants to bring manufacturing back to the USA, at which point these printers will be at least triple these prices!! Buy while you can, this kind of economic conservatism/isolationism will mean the death of many currently flourishing brands.
Ph0enix to hcc27
21 Aug 17#14
It's seems the title been edited by HUKD staff, I've put it down as £39.98 in the title. But with any cashback I believe they wanted the retail price displayed just encase you can't retrieve the cashback. Since it's HP own promotion, I don't see how it would fail unless you have them a printer that doesn't work.
HP trade-in also pick up your printer, either at home or work. Though I'm still in the process of getting the offer validated.

Oddly the links posted on here is automatically converted by HUKD, try searching "HP Global Promotions" top link. It will display trade-in and cashback offers for printers.
You would assume Amazon is a main reseller for HP, but if they don't publish the promotion on their website you may not get the trade-in or cashback promotion. Just contact Amazon?

Guessing u can get cashback if u order off amazon
Ph0enix
20 Aug 17#2
I believe you can not stack the cashback, the terms says 'may not' but the promotion website would detect the same serial number your entered for trade in.
£100 trade-in is better, if you can't find a useless printer than £50 cashback is easier.

Depending on how much you print and what you print it can still work out competitive against buying carts once the trial expires. For example if you print lots of full colour pages and will roughly hit the plan page limit, its worth considering. If you print text/black and white predominantly and won't use up the plan pages, probably not worth it.

Its worth bearing in mind the instant ink carts will be disabled once your subscription ends. From what I understand your starter carts will become instant ink carts, therefore it may be worth rinsing them until they are almost empty before signing up for the trial. I don't believe theres any way to sign up without an active cart in the printer, but I didn't look to hard as wasn't too bothered about the starter carts.
But their printers on the HP store are going out of stock....when I bought the 7740 (next day delivery) it is now OOS , and the 8720 (next day delivery) is now delayed delivery.
What an incredible price for an office-grade printer. Mostly due to the very low labour and raw material costs wherever HP has outsourced its manufacturing to (probably the PRC). A certain leader in the US wants to bring manufacturing back to the USA, at which point these printers will be at least triple these prices!! Buy while you can, this kind of economic conservatism/isolationism will mean the death of many currently flourishing brands.
HP trade-in also pick up your printer, either at home or work. Though I'm still in the process of getting the offer validated.
Copy and paste as the trade doubler screws it
£100 trade-in is better, if you can't find a useless printer than £50 cashback is easier.
