Review : Are they genuine?
I bought these cartridges from the seller Office Partner GmbH, but I'm not wholly impressed. As we spent a lot of money on our printer, I wanted to make sure that I only used Canon cartridges so there was little risk of it being damaged. I ordered these cartridges because, judging by the photo, they were from Canon. However, they arrived in a plain cardboard box and I had no idea of knowing if they were genuine or whether they were still in date.

I left neutral feedback on the seller's profile and they had the cheek to ask me to remove it (they asked me what would persuade me) as it gave them a bad reputation! I haven't removed it.

It is very possible that these Cartridges are genuine, and I'm all for reducing packaging, but they are not being sold as they are advertised, and I thought other buyers should be aware of this.
