Woot!!! Nice Ordered me a 200 pack. I had to pay taxes though, but at that price for some TY is hard to beat. Those 8X DVD-R matrix blanks they give you free are TYG02 so thats worth spending over 50 bucks for you get 205 blanks rather than 200 Same here ordered from them before and trust them. Just need more sales :P

Fake TYG02.

Yeah I know but they work great and its really overpriced at shop4tech

I'd never trust Fake TYG02. I guess there are cases where they scan out fine and play OK but my one experience with Fake TY's was very bad. I'd must rather use Ritek or Prodisc DVD-R/+R's instead of taking a chance on Fake TY media.

True, but the TYG01 are real TY. Only the Matrix are fake. Plus the fake matrix are free with his order, he did not order them. THEY ARE FREE.

Overpriced, how? $28.80 shipped for 4x AUTHENTIC TY discs is about as good as it gets. Anyways, I wouldn't use the Fake TY stuff simply because I don't want to have to reburn everything within a year or two.

What I meant was that the 8x matrix is really overpriced for fakes and it came free. They are good for burning games since those go out of date and never get played again after a couple of years.

If you say so. I do console backups and I still love playing the old classics.

The bottom line is that garbage media is too expensive even at $0.00 with free shipping. It is a waste of time and data; and for some of us time is money and data is irrepelaceable.

Does everyone understand or not.

He ordered real TY and is getting real TY media.

They gave him a free 5 pack of Matrix 8x -R for ordering over $50 worth from them. The mtrix discs he is getting for free is what is the fake stuff, not what he originally ordered.

People need to learn and read better and not confuse people that will be skimming through this thread.

SHOP4TECH'S TY 4X MEDIA IS REAL TY!!!!!

Fast,

I believe people are saying that they would rather take a swift kick in the nuts than to receive the Digital Matrix disk free!!!! They do make good flashy things to scare birds away from the garden.

That's exactly what I am trying to say. What good are 5 free discs if I have to go through the hassle of replacing them within the next year or two. The time lost vs. a 30 cent disc just isn't worth it.

Just received mines fron Shop4tech and its TYG01 and the number on the inner circle looks like GD000267

What!?! You don't have a crazed neighbor running around shooting at animals with a BB Gun to get that job done? *sigh* hehe

And that's exactly what I was referring to. I'd much rather take the swift kick in the nuts then recieve the Fake TY stuff even for free. It'd be a lot less painful.
