 Great product but beware of Amazon's sloppy packaging Feb 23, 2008
By Jan Willis
"forgetitjake"
These are excellent blank DVD-Rs.
I have yet to encounter any problems
with the Maxell brand, which is not
the case with some of the competing brands.
However . . . I cannot recommend that
you order it from Amazon.
The Amazon packaging
was so poor that when I opened the box,
I discovered DVDs everywhere inside it,
the bottom of the container had broken
open and the spindle, also broken,
was in several pieces.
Why?
Instead of packing the item securely
with enough plastic packing around
the item, Amazon used as little packing
as possible.
The result. Damaged DVDs and the spindle
broken in several pieces.
Don't let that discourage you from ordering
this brand. Just don't order it from Amazon.

 Received damaged due to inadequate packing Apr 03, 2008
By Terence D. May
Before ordering this item I saw reviews stating that it had been received damaged. The same happened to my order. Evidently Amazon is unable to rectify this type of problem. I made a complaint by email and by telephone. Amazon will replace items and provide a refund. The agent I spoke to said he could pass my complaint onto the shipping department, but there is no feedback mechanism in place which, acknowledges receipt of the complaint by that department and its intent to improve packing in future. Without that I will not order this item from Amazon again.

 Very Poor Packaging Practice Jun 13, 2009
By D. M. Wilson
The Maxell DVD-R discs are, for the most part, very reliable to record on. I have used this brand for years. However, the discs must be in pristine condition in order to properly record. My complaint isn't with the discs as much as it is with the packaging method that Amazon used (or didn't use) to ship them. I received two spindles of 100 that were just placed in a box and shipped. During transit, the spindle containers were demolished and all 2oo discs were jostled freely about inside the box. Many of the discs were scratched and rendered useless. All Amazon needed to do to prevent the mishap was to fill the voids in the shipping box with styrofoam peanuts or other packing material. I have read reviews from other customers who have had this same misfortune. I thought that maybe my experience would be different -- that maybe Amazon had fired the culprit(s) in their shipping department who neglected to use even the basic of packaging practices. I was wrong! They are still working there. From this experience I have learned that a penny saved is NOT necessarily a penny earned! These are the last DVD-R discs that I will buy from Amazon until they can prove that they really want my business.

Maxell dvd-r rocks. May 01, 2010
By John Napier
I once used these maxell gold dvd-r's about 7 years ago. I have never went back to using any other type. Absolutely love this brand. Shipping was a little loose but I was lucky that even in the loose packaging I didn't have any damaged. I recommend sending them in smaller boxes instead of a box that could fit a 26"tv.

DVD-R Maxell discs Jun 29, 2009
By Anne V. Markham
"Victoria Markham"
I like Maxell DVD-R discs because they work the best in recording and copying everything, Other brands Glitch, where they refuse to work, and have to be thrown out, not Maxell. I find my frustration level is nearly zero when using this product
