Review on Smartbuy 200-Disc 700Mb/80Min 52X CD-R Logo Top Blank Data Recordable Media Disc by Zachary Cha

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Good value in CDs - they are fine- but the packaging is horrid- no spindle

These came to me wrapped in layer after layer of saran wrap. I didn't think I was ever going to get it off. Then, inside, are the 100 CD-Rs with NO SPINDLE and only a paper wrapped around them. Several were falling off the top of the stack right out after the unwrapping. Luckily, I needed several today so I went ahead and burned those.They all burned just fine. They are 700MB and the front has plenty of space to write on and it is a nice, matte white so it is easy to see whatever it is I write.I am totally happy with the CDs, but worry that I will have waste because there's no spindle or anything keeping them safe. I don't happen to have an old one on hand to use, and I have cats.very bad cats who knock everything off my desk sometimes. I'm going to put these in a insulated padded lunch bag and hope they are OK. I stuck a sharpie down the middle of them to keep them together at least so they don't fall off the stack at the top.

Pros
  • worked
Cons
  • The top of the disc could potentially smudge or scratch during handling, affecting the quality of the burn

don''t want to say anything bad.The blank cd are very good.Price is a little more than what I found after buying these, but get them if you need them right away as the shipping is great.
