I'm so new to this,watching reading trying to learn. I just purchased 6 100 packs of Verbatim DVD-R off e-bay for $57.00. The stacks say they are made in Tiawan..Did I just get burned?? Does anyone know how good they are?? Have 8 kids so need to backup movies due to wear and tear,was this worth the purchase??

notsum- Well assuming that they are Genuine Verbatims ! You got a Honey of a deal ( I just purchased 6 100 packs of Verbatim DVD-R off e-bay for $57.00) that's less than $10.00 100ct/spindle ! Verbatims are indeed made in Taiwan & are considered by most to be some of the best media available ! They are also make them in India @ the Mosa Baer Plant and they make DVD+R DL disk in singapore ! But my experience with them has been soley with the taiwan made ones and the Singapore made DVD+R DL 's no complaints on either !you might also try running the disk through dvd Identifier to see how they code out ? Additionaly you might seek out joe ryan -afterdawn member as he seems to be quite knowledgeable on media matters & he may be able to offer you more indepth information that you might like to know good luck and good bargain hunting CiaO!

If the discs are genuine Verbatim discs, then they were most probably manufactured by CMC Magnetics in Taiwan. They are excellent discs.

notsum- no problem ! just for informational purposes was the deal on ebay a online retailer/dealer/store ? or just a individual selling off her or his surplus media ?

I believe Bigtoxy it was from some kind of a store/dealer...he also had trains to sell and more single 100 packs of verbatim disks on ebay. I just searched verbatim disks and this dealer/store came up with the 6, 50 packs...There was also 100 ct stacks,but those were single 100 stacks..This store/dealer is based in Michigan. Somewhere close to the Detroit area..Hope this helps..Terri
