5 pack of Ritek G04 DVD-R's for $5.99, Microcenter

[Justus]

Package says they are TDK 2X DVD-R's, but they are really 4X Ritek G04's. Can't get much better that this.

Picked mine up in the Virginia store. Lots in stock.

Nice if you have a b&m store nearby to pick them up!

Unfortunately, I don't. $5.99 shipping for one package pretty much kills the deal.

 

[Antisocial Virge]

Thanks. Should go good with the Pioneer ao6 I just bought. I'll pick up some more of those 128 cd binders for $9 when I'm there.

This is a good deal. Justus, how are you sure these are 4x G04s? By using DVDR info pro or an equivalent? Want personal testimony if anyone else has confirmed this. Somehow I'm skeptical. If it's true then it's a nice deal, thanks!

2 weeks ago when they had this deal, I got the G03's in Long Island. Maybe it's re-stocked and I'll get the G04's.

Yea. I plan on grabbing more also. Good deal since you don't have to deal with rebates.

 

[iliopsoas]

No rebates and it's an excellent price for 4X ritek media!

I scored 10 5pks of these tonight in St. Louis Park, MN. They check out as Riteks 4x. Cheapest price with jewel case I could find 4x riteks is at cdrdvdrmedia for $1.46 for 50 plus $8 shipping comes to $1.62 each. These babys come out to be $1.27 each including tax, a savings of .35 per disc.

 

[toshipics]

cool~ it that works on A105? I have TDK dvdrw. It just can be burned once. NO rewrite!!! Wasted me 7 bucks.

If anyone is interested, the have kypermedia DVD+RW 10 packs for 13.00 which I think is a great price.
I heard HP uses kypermedia dics, can anyone confirm this ?
