Review on 📀 Maxell 190134 CD & DVD Paper Storage Envelope Sleeves - 50 Pack with Clear Plastic Windows (Multi-Color) - Great for Organizing your Disc Collection! by Todd Phillips

I used to buy Maxell CD/DVD cases in a pack of 50. Not here, but some time ago on another site. I was very happy with the quality of the paper and the box looked exactly like the one pictured here but with a smaller recommended quantity. A pack of 50 per envelope is more expensive but I thought maybe the 100 pack offer is now on sale. Finally, during the COVID pandemic, many people are streaming movies and music instead. The need for these envelopes may have gone, as I thought at least for now. Added to this was the advertising that the envelopes were advertised on thick paper, which made this offer all the more tempting to be reluctant to refuse. Result? Boy was I wrong. Envelopes are too thin. They tear easily and offer little protection to the end product. The Maxell 50 package offered here as P/N 190134 may be of similar poor quality. Maybe Maxell has switched to lighter paper everywhere. The key is to verify the correct weight of the actual product being sold. Browsing other websites revealed my fatal error in my assessment. How can a 50 pack weigh 4.8 ounces anywhere else when a 100 pack weighs just 0.8 ounces more here at 5.6. Obviously the difference in the quality of the paper sold is in the end product. Others have told me to look for paper that weighs 24 pounds or more for future purchases. Luckily I get my money back for this item and it's your choice if you think price is more important than quality. Please note that the box I received does not look like the item advertised here either. (SEE IMAGE)
