[PLUG] Brand X laser toner cartridges?

Anyone have good luck with "brand X" toner cartridges (specifically
for the HP1600/2600, Q600[0123] {KCYR} )? 

In the past, I've refilled my own cartridges with toner from
tonerrefillkits.com, but that is a little messy and time 
consuming.  Though their refill toner for most machines is 
excellent, the Q6000 black toner comes out gray.  So, I am
looking for substitutes. 

I've had OK luck with Cartridge World toner, but it isn't
much cheaper than original HP.  I've had terrible luck with
Office Max branded substitutes - their red cartridge spilled
toner into the optical calibration paths, and on circuit
boards, and I had to disassemble the entire printer and
clean it one part at a time.

So, who is cheap and good for toner cartridges, especially
mail order?
