Mate of mine has some recently expired (ie 2008) Epson R2400

Basically he's offering 2 full sets for the price of 1 full new set.
What's the lists thoughts on using expired ink? And what exactly
goes "off"?
As the ink ages, it can dry out and prove unreliable in use. But
beyond due date, if only a few months, shouldn't be a problem.
I had a printing project today for an exhibition I've been accepted
into. Printing to 13x19 inch Velvet Fine Art ... $3.50 a sheet. First
time I've had any problems at all with the R2400. Ultimately it turned
out the Matte Black ink cartridge was failing, but it wasn't clear
what was happening and cost me something like ten sheets of paper
trying to suss it out before the cartridge went belly up and lit its
replace light.
These four prints are the most expensive four prints I've made in four
years!
