Default Selling used printer cartridges?

Hello.

I know Staples will buy back printer cartridges (two bucks for each
one), but they require me to apply for an account which I don't want to
do. I just want to sell and buy something without registrations, etc.
like recyling bottles, cans, etc. in person. Are there are other local
companies/stores that will buy them back for money?

Thank you in advance.

No one knows? I forgot to mention in Southern California/CA, United
States/U.S. area like in Los Angeles/L.A.

If none, then I guess I will toss them into the trash.

In the UK there are a number of charities that collect used cartridges
and recycle them; it usually isn't worth messing around with one or two.

It would be nice if schools or charities had bins
to collect them so they get the cash.
Of if StaplesDepot allowed donating them there
and giving the credit to a local school.

Certainly enough stores (Kinko's, Best Buy)
collect them to keep any money for themselves.

Yeah, lame. I recycle empty plastic bottles, cans, etc. to a local
outdoor recycler place that buys them and PAY me back. I can easily get
about eight bucks (yeah, not a lot but hey economy is rough these days)
per month by doing this.
