    Yeah, online, I very rarely buy anything in walk-in stores, the cost differences are always way more than the cost of shipping, walk-in stores are going to cop for it one day when more people realise that online shopping saves so much money. I know the argument for walk-in is the convenience and getting hold of the product straight away but the cost differences are so much (here in Ripoff Britain anyways) that to me it's a no brainer.

    I usually stock up on the Verbs when they're $19.99/100 at Office Max . . .

    However, I broke down and ordered 500 of the +R JVC cuties from SMS simply because my wife let me . . .

    I checked out merit, still to much for ty's or verbs when if you shop around somebody somewhere has them 20 bucks for a 100, I use +r's and SMS still beats out merit, plus merit charging shipping which really puts merit over.

    where can you find TY's for $20 per 100? im all over them if they are.
    verbs yes just about any B&M shop has verbs for $20 when on sale. but ive never seen TY's for $20 per 100.

    on that link i posted they are free shipping too.

    here is SMS link for 8x+r tys. no where near $20 per 100
    http://www.supermediastore.com/cate...AIYO+YUDEN&filter=Speed=8X|Quantity=100+Pack|

    and here is meritline for the same disc 8x+r TY's $6 cheaper????

    LOL! Their +R's ain't that bad :p I buy SMS TY+R's fairly regularly. I might be buying them more often, if I see the need for them ;) Certain types of backups, I may only trust them. I do generally stick with SMS myself. But I love it when Officemax has a sale on Verbs :D Bestbuy is 30+ miles away, Officemax is only 6 miles away :)

    Not free shipping on those rob. Comes to about 38$. not a whole lot of savings there unfortunately.

    Fred,
    This is what I bought last week from the egg!
    http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817294005
    Of course they are cheaper elsewhere, but I usually stick with the Egg! They more than make up the difference in price with all sorts of specials they send me! Overall, I do almost all my shopping from the Egg, and generally get things the next day!

    These came in a 100 pack Cake Box. Worst one I've ever seen. Also the stupidest design I ever saw! Totally maddening to open or close! LOL!! They will even let you burn them at 16x if you want. I just burn them at 8x!

    Best Regards,
    Russ

    those are 16x+r's too. thats a damn good price for them. i havent had any 16x+r TY's since they first come out and docty was still around. i bugged him to death about them but, not being out all that long he hadnt had a chance to work with them to see how they stacked up to the 8x TY's. Moony or catfreak if ya would do some scans with those and post them in the scan thread if ya would im curious to see how they do... if ya dont mind.

    rob your right about the 20 buck ty's, they are much harder to obtain, every once in a great while SMS will have them and a sale usually lasts a day or two, why hardly any sales on pluses I don't know, and yes the verbs you can get often from OfficeMax or Sams for 20 bucks.

    I will tell you those 300 pack +JVC's from SMS look awfull tempting for 86 smackers plus made by ty, man I'm gonna have to wash some dishes the next few days and get the Misses to let me order them.

    Russ I never knew newegg even carried blank media, stupid me never ever looked, plus you dirty dog with them special deals from them, I'm jelous also lol.

    Has anybody here have any experiance with the JVC ty's yet, I'm always kinda leary on ordering something new cause that deal looks very tempting.
