Where do you live? You can still find the 8x Sony DVD+Rs TYs at Sears in many places. Price-match the Best Buy ad at Sears for an out-the-door price of $12 per 50 pack.

My friend in NY just returned from Sears with 2x50 pack of Sony 8X DVD+R TY T02 for 24.90$ out-the-door

Now waiting for those plus the other 2 packs of T02 that my brother got me from Sears in TN . Next month I hope

1.42 Egyptian Pound per disc is awesome for TY media :

I pay :

7 EP per disc for TYG03 Panasonic media in slim cases
5.5 EP for Prodisc made Verbatim
5.0 EP for Ridata
3.5 EP for HP CMC MAG E01
3.0 for Daxon AZ3
2.0 for Daxon AZ2


Stocking media on sale from the other side of the world is amazing

It is an excellent deal not just "good"
Rima.com has 100 T02 for 36.99 plus tax and shipping and Supermediastore.com has them for 47.99 plus tax and all of those are shiny silver unbranded which doesn't look good with fingerprints attached to the shiny silver top

BTW : check your Sears fast as those Sony TY seems to be harder and harder to find , both my brother in TN and my friend in NY got me the last two spindles of them

I will only buy more media if and only if 100 disc, good brand of course, no ritek, no CMC, in the sub-$15. Right now I have enough supply to last me till the end of 2007 and may be to mid 2008 since I haven't burnt as much I as I used to.

And $24.99 for 100 disc became a regular price. If you wont find this price at one store, you will find it at another, so every week, I see this deal, if not at office max, then you will find it at office depot or best buy or cc or compusa. Only buy if you need blank immediately, but dont even bother to stock up because you will see this same price every week
