Message-ID: <2013@moscom.UUCP> Date: 9 Feb 90 16:04:32 GMT Distribution: usa Organization: Moscom Corp., E. Rochester, NY Lines: 25 Help!! For the past couple years, I've been buying bulk 3.5" DSDD disks from MEI/MicroCenter. I've bought THOUSANDS of disks from them, starting when they were $1 per disk. Now they are $.45 per disk and they are shit. Out of each 200 I buy, at least 50-75 of them won't format DS. I figure they are just using SS disks (because the SS disks are the same price). Back when the disks were from $.70 - $1 each, they were great disks and it was a great deal. Now it sucks having to return disks only to get more bad ones. Some of these disks have "marks" (look like scratches) across the media that I just wonder is doing to my drive. I need to find a place that sells bulk DSDD disks, GOOD disks at a good price. I buy, on the average, 100 a month. And to think, Computer Shopper says MEI is the people's choice for best value. HA! They haven't responded to my letters. When I call, they always ask what kind of computer I have, then tell me to send them back to be cheerfully replaced. I want them to be good the first time! Anyone with recommendations, please mail me. Thanks. -- Tom Bellucco - moscom!tmb@cs.rochester.edu or {...}!rochester!moscom!tmb ------------------------------------- "Whatever I said, I didn't mean it...unless, of course, you liked it!" #include
