Cartridge World is not an indie store by any far stretch of the imagination... but! If you are a…read morestudent, or an impoverished writer then you are definitely going to be tempted to pay these guys a visit. According to them they are "the world's No. 1 provider of great-value, top quality refilled printer cartridges". I don't know about the number one claim, but I do know they're cheap! Besidews, cartridge refills have to be the way forward...? They are eco friendly and cost effective, so why, for the sake of commerce would we buy a new disposable unit, that goes straight into landfill and takes a few millennia to decompose, when we can make a more ecological choice and save money at the same time??? It's not often that the eco-organic option comes it at less than the price of the normal product!!! They handle every major brand of printer cartridge for home, education or business use, and everything is backed by a '100% Moneyback guarantee'. They have 220 stores nationwide.

This Cardiff Bay-based company sells a wide selection of office supplies, from board room furniture…read moreto printer cartridges, and offers same-day delivery for those urgent items. Browns provided all the stationery items for a business I used to work at in the Bay, and their customer service is what always stood out: the sales staff were really friendly, and even the delivery guys were always up for a quick chat or bit of banter. Their prices seemed reasonable for what we were ordering (although I don't have much to compare it with), but I think my boss mainly purchased through Browns because they were a local Welsh company within walking distance of our office. Browns offers a range of furniture, including Sven Christiansen Office Furniture, Orangebox Seating & Triumph Steel Storage. A free office supplies catalogue or furniture brochure can be ordered through their website or by calling 02920 491149.

The staff are always friendly and helpful. I recently got something photcopied that was very important and the assistant went out of her way to make sure it was copied clearly. Prices are quite reasonable. I bought a very large sheet of brown parcel paper for 25p. I haven't been able to find it any cheaper nearby. A great shop to go to for individual items - a particular type of pen for example.

I was out Yelping in town the other day - by which I mean I had to do some chores so I took my…read morecamera with me and took some photos of various shops in the centre, not that I was standing outside the Tesco Metro where the nutters congregate shouting to myself. Anyway, this was all going fairly well and I'd established something of a routine - go to a shop, take a photo, go to the next shop, take another photo - you get the idea. This was all going swimmingly until I got to Smiths. For some reason, after I'd taken a pic, the manager came running out after me and demanded to know what the pic was far. I told her and she insisted that I write down the URL of this site for her to investigate. Out of respect for the privacy of Smiths, I've decided not to upload the pic, though, even without looking at it, I can easily describe it for you instead. It's a Smiths. As for a review of the store. It's a Smiths. I sincerely hope these revelations won't damage this secretive little store too much...

Yes, it's a Smiths, so expect a fairly standardised approach to the printed word, in magazines and…read morenewspapers. However, this place has a special significance for me, as I work for a magazine and it's always with special pride that I trot down to this store to make sure that all the hard work that me and the team put into making it each month wasn't entirely wasted. It's fairly niche, as magazines go, so this is one of the only stockists, and it's on this fact that I recommend this branch, especially now that Borders has been wiped off the face of the earth. Yes, this Smiths has two floors, so it's packed with printed goods. One of the better stores in the chain, for sure.

The store is blessed with every bit of office equipment you can think of, and some more.

Staff are very good here it must be said, very helpful and knowledgeable. Just a shame there products are very bland on the whole.
