?!

I've seen them use that word for items they don't plan on selling any longer, things they know they won't get a restock of for a while, or things that are just out of stock at the moment, but may come in stock soon. Basically it doesn't mean much. — Neil

About three weeks ago, I needed a CLI-8 ink set for my Pixma 9000 printer. It showed "dicontinued." at that time. I just checked again, and it now shows the ink in stock. That said, I've always had good luck with them. Misleading! Boooo
