$49.00 Mail-In rebate -$25.00 [bold]$24.00[/bold] VERBATIM 4.7GB 8X DVD-R 100 Pack Cake Box Disc - Retail Model #: 94985 Item #: N82E16817130959 [bold]$25.00 Mail in rebate Free FedEx Saver Shipping (Not available in HI, AK, and PR) [/bold] http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16817130959 I have used NEWEGG for 5 years and not one single problem.
i ordered the 100 pack of dvd +r verbs from newegg with the rebate....still waiting on the rebate. ordered next 100 pk of verbs from amazon, and it took a long time to arrive, and they do a poor job of packing your order to prevent damage. /hoping to get my newegg rebate within the next week or so
lol...I have just recieved notice about my newegg verb rebate from 'rebateshq' that 'my check will be mailed within 30 days' 6 weeks to process, and ghod knows how long to mail out...lol
oh well, at least i didn't forget to mail it in, which is what they are counting on with rebates. the day after thanksgiving, fry's has a ton of stuff on sale. everyone has stuff on sale because they know it is the biggest shopping day of the year, but fry's has a lot of stuff that is basically free after rebate. last year i had about a dozen rebates to send in, took a whole morning to go make copies of everything and get them mailed out (did it the very next day so i wouldn't forget). i'm planning to camp out around midnight or so this year. last year i missed out on a 27 inch tv for like $70, and we could use a new one. we did get a 3.2 megapixel digital camera for $47, which we needed. and tons of software free after rebate. i've been watching for fry's to have a deal on the dvd software that comes with anydvd, which dvd software is that??? i guess i could search the forum....lazy
To save $25.00 I can wait, the cheapest I have seen that media was for $39.95 plus tax. I still have some TYs to tie me over.
i have a best buy near me, i'm gonna go check it out right now and grab one or two 50 pks if they have them at that price here. /don't want to get caught without an emergency stash again ------- couldn't make it out at lunch, will try to stop by after work today if my wife gets called out on a trip, may have to wait and stop by tomorrow
i myself use tdk and have not had a major problem with my lite-on 1633s burner. circuit city has 25 packs on sale alot for just about $8.
All you guys better stock up. Media prices are on the rise because of the price of oil. They made made with petro. products.

looks good tiburon~ that is fast shipping, i ordered from amazon awhile ago for the Verbs and i got horrible shipping with mine too, 2 of the casings were shattered, but the discs were still on the spindle rod...lucky for that~ also, another point of mention if anyone is WILLING to try amazon again to save a few dollars and not deal with rebates... BOTH the 8x Verb dvd-r and dvd+r are available at amazon.com now for $29.99 w/ free shipping.~ that's the BEST price i have seen with NO rebates to worry about yet~ this is for the 100 pk spindle btw. i paid $35/100 pk when i ordered them not too long ago, but, it's $5 cheaper now w/ no rebates~ [bold] BUT [/bold] anyone who does buy them at such a good price will have to worry about the poor packaging/shipping amazon uses to send their products out~ it's somewhat a gamble, but, they are the REAL DEAL and at a good price now...just my suggestion, the reason i bought from amazon is because i get charged sales tax in california from new egg..so, w/ free shipping and no tax from amazon, i got a BETTER price for these 100 Verbs as i would from newegg even AFTER the rebate~ just wish the shipping was better, other than that, i have no complaints~
as if i need an excuse to buy more!, i s'pose i could find some spare money and buy a few 100 more. god knows where i'm gonna store them tho
darn, saw this and was ready to jump on it like white on rice but it's a "mail" in rebate. Ahh, I hate mail in rebates, something seems to always go wrong. Send in the bar code they say you didn't, fill out the rebate form, they said it wasn't, etc, etc. Nice deal though for those that don't mind chancing the mail in rebate. I just went ahead and bought some more trusty Riteks for $30 shipped, no rebates to worry about either.
u could always buy more creaky and send them to me, i'll hold on to them for you, my room of blank discs is not filled to capacity YET~ OR u don't have to worry bout it as i still have hundreds left and if the shortage lasts until end of year, i'll send you some from my stash~
