About four years ago I decided to get out of the 'ink race.' Took way too much space and money to have every color in all of the ink brands that were on the market. I spent some time figuring out what types of inks I used the most, and which company had the best color selection in those types.
Long story short...I selected Clearsnap. With the exception of alcohol-based inks (solvent inks), Clearsnap has every type of ink available in a wide range of colors. If I do need an alcohol-based ink, I simply blend a bit of 91% rubbing alcohol with a dye-based Clearsnap ink.
I can't tell you how nice it is to use one brand. No more testing each time I purchase another brand; I know exactly what each type offers. Storage is a piece of cake. Another plus...Clearsnap has exceptional customer service.
I'm addicted to re-inkers...not just for reinking pads, but as the handiest coloring agent (brush, sponge, brayer, etc.) possible. Clearsnap has reinkers for all of their inks...one more plus!
