Office Supply Provisions I Check First

Business accounts and ink subscriptions have terms that can lock you in. Know what you're signing up for.

Ink Subscription Lock-In

High Risk

Printer ink subscriptions disable your printer if you cancel. Those "free" pages require ongoing subscription—cancel and the printer stops working with those cartridges.

Look for: "Subscription required," cartridge deactivation, and cancellation consequences.

Business Credit Terms

High Risk

Business accounts often come with personal guarantees. Net-30 terms have late fees of 1.5-2% monthly. Miss payments and they come after you personally.

Look for: Personal guarantee requirements, late fees, and collection terms.

Furniture Assembly/Returns

Medium Risk

Assembled furniture often can't be returned. Even unassembled returns may have 15-25% restocking fees for large items.

Look for: Assembly impact on returns, restocking fees, and large item policies.

Minimum Order for Free Shipping

Medium Risk

Free shipping requires $50+ orders. Below that, shipping can be $8-15. Oversized items add surcharges even with free shipping.

Look for: Free shipping threshold, surcharges, and delivery options.

Rewards Program Expiration

Medium Risk

Rewards points expire (often in 90-180 days). Some have minimum redemption thresholds. Your "5% back" may never be redeemable.

Look for: Point expiration, minimum redemption, and program changes.

Technology Return Restrictions

Medium Risk

Printers, monitors, and tech have shorter return windows (14-15 days vs 30). Some have restocking fees or require original packaging.

Look for: Category-specific return windows and packaging requirements.
