Some online and maybe some brick & mortar stores sell sampler sets. Personally I buy Taiyo Yuden 4X-R. I do wait until sales with free shipping. I may go 8X+R next time. The main reason I do not use Verbatim is not their quality, but the way they screwed me on 2 rebates. Returned one saying it needed more postage which Postmaster could not understand because there was enough postage on it weighed it ans sent it back to them with a sticker verifying the postage was correct. They then denied it based on time had expired, no reply on the other one. Hope another company will start making Quality DLs, but until then I'll keep doing what I am currently doing. I do not support dishonest companies.
