I had wanted cheap black ink to experiment with and found a 40ml bottle of Boake ink for $3.81 and a 48ml bottle of Ostrich ink for $5.15. Since the prices went up right after buying them I am assuming I got a first time buyer's discount.

I've always been nervous about aliexpress inks causing jams. How is it?
