the only thing they would do as a sub would be 4 x 25 packs of imation @ $29.99 each with $10 MIR for each. NOT HOT in this case

You should tell them that its limit 1 rebate per household for the imitation.

i got 4 packes of the Imatations for 15 each. sent the UPC to the Arita 20 dollar rebate, and also sent 1 copy to the Imation 10 dollar rebate.

Don't both rebates require the original upc?

The Memorex 50pk 4X DVD+R will be on sale for $59.99 this coming Sunday. Looks like the stores are hiding them.

Had them check their inventory (w/c they were reluctant to do). Showed 45 in stock, but claimed that they cannot find them or inventory is not always accurate. :disgust:

Need help.

I jumped in for this deal and got one 100pk arita DVD+R disk. However, when I tried to identify the disks. Guess what i got??? Both dvdinfopro and dvdidentifier show it is " DVD-R, RITEKG03, speed 1x-2x ". How can the DVD+R change to be DVD-R? BTW, I am using Iomagic 8X DVD +/-RW drive, which is a Optorite DD401 Drive.


Thanks.




Unique Disc Identifier : [DVD-R:RITEKG03]
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Disc Type : [DVD-R]
Manufacturer ID : [RITEKG03]
Disc Application Code : [Unrestricted Use : Consumer Purpose]
Recording Speeds : [1x - (2x)]
Blank Disc Capacity : [2,298,496 Sectors = 4,489.3 MB = 4.38 GB]

Michelle is actually mastertech01's daughter who has been missing for several years. John is an outsanding person to have on these forums, and I'm sure he has done everything in his power and then some in his search for his beloved lost daughter.

Yes it says original it also states that if sending a manufature rebate copies of UPC can be used. I just gave it a try. If i get the extra 10 bucks would be nice, but if i dont, id still get the 20 bucks for the arita rebate. So dont really matter if it works or not.

Did they give you 2 50pks of the Imation DVD+R? for 43 dollars?

Or is it 2 25pks for 43 dollars?

I dont know about CMC quality, but if its 43 dollars OTD for 100 DVD+R i think it would be a pretty hot deal, considering you should be able to still send the UPCs to the Arita rebate for annother 20 dollars off. which would make 23 dollars for your DVD+R if the rebate goes through.

Hmmm... I have a Cyberdrive DX082D 8x DVD+R/RW burner and I can't get it to burn the Ricoh R01 discs at 8x. I have one (in an external USB case) that SAYS it will write at 8x when I insert a Ricoh R01 disc, but it actually writes at 4x. Tried it with Nero and DVDDEcryper, and both say they're gonna do an 8x write, but they do a 4x write...Hmmm...V111B firmware.

I didn't get a call on my rain check today. I wonder if they will sell them to me for $40 when the come in since the rebate will expire. I guess time will tell.

Rebate newb question,

I purchased another rebate item(120 gig western Digital Hard Drive) the same time I got the 4 pak's of Imation DVD +R's as a substitute.

I only have one receipt.

The other rebate item has both a manufactures and a Officemax rebate, so the original receipt is required to be sent in for that one.

In your guy's experience ,what would be the best thing to do?
Send in a copy of the receipt for the DVD's and hope?

Any advice is appreciated !!

I had pretty much given up on this deal. I just got my call saying my rain check can be filled. I asked if the rebate will still be honored they said yes and to send in the rain check with the rebate.

I just hope they don't forget about the instant rebate. I know I won't. Well I did because I didn't ask csr on the phone.

I wasn't too worried if they ever called but I burnt about half of my stock over the weekend. Definately need a supply of good media.

I just want to say like some other people even though it says 2.4x on the dvd itself even it burns fine at 4x. I use dvdinfopro to identify it and it gets identified as

Media code/Manufacturer ID RICOHJPNR01

Hey scrap I have close to 100Gb of videos on my drive from the tivo that I have to burn. I have had a small cache of cheap media but hate to use it on some of the movies I have. John Wayne and Clint deserve the best media possible. I still have some editing to do though.

I definately plan on putting these puppies to use right away. I almost wish I would have gotten a rain check for 2. You can never have enough media. Especially with the tivo. Man I have 100 Gb on my raid that I was storing them on. I had to move a lot of them onto my empty 160Gb drive the other day just for some breathing room. I don't think it will take long to make a dent in the spindle.

Just want to thank the OP again. I would have missed it if it wasn't for mystic.

Some of the stores are calling for the rainchecks and selling the Ridata 4X DVD+R. Does anyone who makes this media? I don't have a burner yet so I can't ID these yet, plus I bought the blanks for my folks.

Thanks in advance,
RR :beer:

I know Ridata 4x DVD - R's are Ritek G04s so I'm assuming Ridata +R's are Ricohs as well which = good media.

ScrapSilicon,

Thanks for the information. The one I got was a Greenish / Blue Label on the package,
Ridata 4x DVD+R 100pk. It came in a normal 100pk plastic spindle and cover, not just shrink wrapped.
