Default where to buy cheap cricut carts?

I used to order my cricut carts from OhMyCrafts.com for about 15-22 dollars each, I never paid more than 22 dollars. I haven't bought any in awhile, well this morning I went to omc to check it out and it says they will not be selling any right now. Does anyone know why? And more importantly, does anyone know where I can purchase carts for preferably under 25 dollars, but generally just cheap?

I hope I'm not double-posting; something went whacko just now. I just suggested to bid on Ebay. Look up a search for the particular cartridge you want, and place your maximum bid! I never pay more than $25 for mine this way. Also, keep to the listings that offer free shipping. That way you don't pass $25 per cartridge.

i have bought most of my carts from memorymier.com, she really nice, service is
really good, and it seems to ship quick.
If you are looking for the older ones, what i mean are like the wild card, and jasmine, you can go to walmart.com and get them for 21.oo, 22.00. At there stores they sell
them for more, doesn't make sense to me.

It's going to be very hard to find the deals we used to get on carts. Provo Craft has made their retailers follow a strict pricing policy that dictates higher prices than we used to find easily.

Not coincidentally, PC also sued the companies that provided excellent design programs that allowed folks to design images without buying cartridges. So, now you're pretty much stuck with buying carts -- carts which cost quite a bit more than they used to.

I think OMC quit selling because they are fed up with PC's business practices. TheOtherMeg stated it as I remembered...the price fixing was driving the smaller stores out of business.

When I do buy, which is very limited now, I go with eBay or directly to Memory Miser as others suggested. MM is an awesome company with great customer service.

I have purchased carts from cricutmachine.com and have gotten very good deals, have to check often as deals change frequently.

Do they have to be new? I see carts all the time on our craigslist.
