  1. Just thought i'd post an update on those White Top ACCU's with the manufacturer ID as SONY. I've just burned my 25th disk and just like the other 24 before it, they have all burned flawlessly. They burn and play just as smoothly as the silver top Sony/ACCU's.

    They all play smooth as ICE from beginning to end and these are definitely the Best Deal of any disks I've seen. If anyone can prove how Ritek could possibly be any better then these, show your right.

    Actually, I'll take your word for it..because noone needs to buy these crappy ACCU's...just keep buyin' those Riteks as they raise the prices on em' like Gas. 8)

    Where are you getting white top Accu's from? All I've ever seen are silver tops.

  3. www.cdrdvdrmedia.com And they have FREE SHIPPING STILL! Talk about a GEM!

  4. Hey defense, when you order these Accu's, how do you specify the white top ones? Do you order from the website or over the phone? I don't see the white top Accu's on the website, only the silver ones. I got a sampler from CDRDVDRMedia, it came with 2 of the silver ones, and right now I have one under a vase on my dining room table and my wife is using the other as a makeup mirror. The Meritline-branded disks turned out to be made by Ricoh, they all burned great, I've not had opportunity to test how widespread the set top compatibility is. You seem to be going through these Accu's like grass through a goat, and with good success. I'd like to get my grimy mitts on some

    yeah, me too, I'm almost through my 200 I bought a couple months ago. now I'm looking to buy some of these white tops.

    how exactly do we ensure that we are getting the good ones?
    Quote Quote  
  6. ok fella's, here's what you got to do. First, let me say that i'm not sure why anyone would continue to order from Meritline when it has been said over and over again, they are the same company as cdrdvdrmedia.com. The difference is cdrdvdrmedia.com has LOWER prices for the SAME media, and they still have FREE shipping...so WHY in the HELL would anyone continue to purchase from Meritline?

    Now that i've mentioned that, let me tell you what you have to do. Not just to ensure you'll get ink jet printable/white top ACCU's, but also to ensure half of the 100 pk order isn't "LEAD DATA." You have to call the number on their site, speak to a customer service rep. When I called, they put on their "senior technical support" specialist because I had several questions. When I spoke to him I mentioned that I was happy with their site etc..etc...and told him I did NOT want "LD" even as a SINGLE disk, in my 100 pack.

    He told me he could not guarantee that, and I told him i'd return the disks and go to another online site if he didn't put some type of note on my account, he told me that they usually don't do that, but in this case he would. I told him, bet that up...thanks...and ALSO when I ordered from cdrdvdrmedia.com I made sure in the "comments" section I put that I spoke to the Guy who "ensured" me I would get all SONY and ALL white top/ink jet printable disks. I told them to make sure they honor the request, because I had been happy with their service in the past, and didn't want to have to go somewhere else. I also made it a point to tell them that I did NOT want "50/50" and 50 of the being LD's..I wanted ALL SONY.

    I have read that some people on here seem to think these online sites have no clue as to what they are sending when a person places and order, but those people are way off and definitely wrong! I have received three seperate orders now and I can tell you that the first two orders, the 50 pack spindles of the "SONY" all had bar codes on the top of the spindle, while the "LD'S" had no bar code. They LOOKED identical, BUT THEY WERE NOT identical. When the White top, Ink Jet printables finally arrived, I noticed that BOTH spindles had a bar code on the top. I smiled and said..."YEAAAAA BUDDDYYY!"

    When I tested the disks from both spindles, they were ALL SONY! I don't burn nearly as much as many on this site, but i've done 25 of them..OH...AND "ALL" AT 2X by the way with RecordNow Max...and not a SINGLE ISSUE WITH ANYTHING. I'VE completely FILLED to the MAX a couple of these disks, and they play perfectly from the opening credits to the ending production company logo. I will try to pull this off one more time, when I get lower on my supply of disks, but this time, i'm gonna try to get at least 200 and possibly more. Hope this works out for you two, because these disks are the "hidden treasure" as i've said before.

  7. I thought the same thing. I called CDRDVDRMEDIA and asked them for white topped Sony's - 500 of them. They said sure. They sent me 500 silver topped LD's. Those didn't work well. I called them back to get an RMA. They said no. I persisted. They said 15% restock fee.

    I'm now in the middle of disputing this charge with my CC bank. They said I will get every penny of my money back and CDRDVDRMEDIA will be noted for "questionable business practices". I said "GOOD!"

    Be forewarned... this outfit is less than reputable and these discs are not a sure bet... even if they tell you they'll send the white Sony's.

    In fact, during our "discussion" on the phone, their lead "tech guy" said that they have stopped carrying the white ones altogether because "they had too many returns for compatibility problems." Something about this entire transaction just makes my stomach curdle!
    Quote Quote  
  8. FYI defense, CDRDVDRMedia doesn't have free shipping on everything - I was going to buy the Samsung BeAll disks... but 50 of the jewel cased disks were going to cost me damn near 20 bucks in shipping! The spindled ones are silver top, which I don't like for asthetic reasons. That's why I was ready to jump all over some of these white-top Accu/Sony disks. Now, aybesea is saying they aren't carrying them anymore... DOH!

    I've been corresponding with RIMA, and I gotta say, so far their service is exemplary. They even offered to send me FREE SAMPLES of some disks that are not offered in any of their sampler packs. I might order 10 of the white DupEZ for a buck apiece and test those out, there are some reports on here that those are Sony's. A spindle of 100 is $85! That's half the price of my beloved BeAll's.

    Balls, see what you get for waiting.. I just went to Rima.com - freakin' white DupEZ are out of stock. Sannamammbeetch!
    Quote Quote  
  9. @ aybesea, sounds like you had a bad experience. Anyone can have a bad experience with ANY company. You should of tested the disks to see the manufacturer id BEFORE using ANY of them. Since you didn't, cdrdvdrmedia has a right to charge you a restocking fee.


    @Vinny, read my post. I never mentioned a single word about "EVERYTHING" being free at cdrdvdrmedia.com I said that they have "FREE SHIPPING" STILL and thought I made it very clear that on the same media you can buy at meritline is cheaper at cdrdvdrmedia.com as well as free shipping. Shit, once you go to the home page damn near every product says "free shipping."

    If there is an exception, then oh well. I wasn't referring to jewel cases and this or that. I was referring to media which is sold under the same name at both sites, while one is chepaer for the media itself, and also "free" shipping as well. Bottom line is that if it's too late to get those white top ACCU's, then that's too bad.

    Very strange that they would say there are compatitibility issues when those disks cost more then the silver tops to produce, as well as that they were flying like hot cakes a month ago when I got them. They probably just wanted to make you feel better about not being able to get the white tops.

    As far as "rima" goes, they have had the same issues. People thought they were gonna definitely get sony manufacturer ID disks for those DUPEZ' and they got LD's, with BOTH the white top and silver tops. It's the same everywhere. The only thing you can do is what I did and try to ensure you'll get what you want prior to it being delivered. No guarantees, but it worked smooth as ice for mayyyy.

  10. I don't agree. The onus should not be on me to test whether the same item works this time or not. The credit card company agrees with me as well and labeled this a "bait and switch". Decide for yourself whether you choose to trust this outfit or not.

    ..lmao...No way the "credit card" comapny agrees with you because they think you are right. If you are a good customer, they may even eat the loss because they know they'll get it back from you one way or another. Interest, Annual Fees, etc. That is the case often times. It has nothing to do with you "testing" the media.

    You were pissed you got "LD's" and that's too bad. When you buy the disks they say "ACCU" they don't say 'SONY" OR "LD" or LED for that matter...there is no bait and switch. You asked for ACCU, and that is what you got. As a consumer it is Buyer Beware, and cdrdvdrmedia owes you absolutely NOTHING. Had your disks been cracked or damaged, then that is a different story. Cdrdvdrmedia NEVER guaranteed you would get anything.

    And if they did, then show it on paper. cdrdvdrmedia.com doesn't have to give you a thing. If I didn't get "SONY" for my last batch, I already told myself I'd keep the LD's and just live with them. That's the risk you run when you buy unbranded media. I can see this won't be your only drama with your credit card company and other online sites. More will follow.

    Sounds waaaay too fishy that you have to jump through hoops and threaten the tech guy just so that you can get what you're supposed to get.

    The credit card company is going to ream them. If they promised aybesea a certain product, then they're the ones at fault. If anything, CDRDVDRMEDIA will be eating the costs.
    Quote Quote  
  13. @supreme2k1, Who had to threaten tech support people? Either you are Hellen Keller trying to finger your way through the thread or are dyslexic. I didn't read a single word about "anyone" myself or aybesea say a word about threatening anyone. Read the posts and don't post bullshit in return. As far as cdrdvdrmedia "promising" a certain media, they will not and "DON'T" promise anything. I made it clear that they "NEVER" promised me anything either. They said they would try their best. I felt good enough with that answer, and It proved right when I got my order.

    In all seriousness, I think it is very obvious that aybesea is not being truthful. I know from experience that they are NOT gonna say "SURE" we'll send you Sony's, when they are quick to tell you that they have no clue what gets sent out. aybesea, give me ONE name of the person you spoke to at cdrdvdrmedia.com. I know a name of someone in customer service as well as their top tech specialist, so since you spoke to the tech, what's his name? Don't go calling now and come back. I know for sure they didn't tell you "sure" they would send you Sony's. But since you claim they did, who told you that? Supreme2k1, the credit card companies aren't gonna "ream" anybody, because they don't have any room to do crap.

    It's the merchant's word vs. the customers. If the customer is worth eating it..then the credit card company will do that to satisfy the customer. Even when the credit card company investigates, it takes time for a resolution, and even "AFTER" yes, AFTER a credit is issued, the merchant can come back and say..BULLSHIT and the CREDIT can be reversed.

    Bottom Line, read slower and fully read the posts supreme2k1. Noone had to threaten anyone to get anything and aybesea got EXACTLY what they were supposed to get, "ACCU" media. :P

    Bottom line, EAT MY ****!

    Just because you've taken it upon yourself to be the spokeman (read:lackey) for some rat-trap "company" doesn't mean that everyone else's complaints are negated.

    Sounds like a threat to me.

    Dont' be such a ******* ******* just because someone questions what you said. Regardless of whether or not you have had great experiences with some company, that's no reason to bite the head off of a person who disagrees. Get out of your mom's basement and learn to deal with people in a rational manner.[/quote]

    Supreme2K,

    I am so glad you said that, because I was so sick and tired of Defense trying to be a smart ass and correct everyone that said something no matter what it was and I have noticed that he is like that in every post that he replies in.

    Supreme2K THANK YOU

  16. There have been numberous reports regarding Meritline/CDRDVDRMedia sending fake tracking numbers, not shipping on time, bait and switch, and having bad customer service. If its just one report then it might just be the consumer, but if they start mounting, then there is definitly something wrong with the company. I'd rather pay shipping and order it from Rima. They ship on time and I their customer service seems pretty good.

  17. supreme2k1, you don't have a **** you little pussy twizzled twirp. I'm sure your pathetic bish ass makes your little one eyed kitty take care of licking your **** though. I guess the kitty at least gets fish every night though huh Bish? It's hard to believe you actually had the coochie too quote that post and you still say it's a threat?

    Your mommy did a good job turning you into a flaming drag queen but shoulda beat your ass a little harder then that, if you think that was a threat. As far as being a personal "spokesperson" for any site, they don't pay me, but when some moron comes on here posting garbage about one experience which they were at fault on, and then turns around and bashes the site, and whines to their credit card company, they better damn sure realize it was their fault because they ordered ACCU disks and that was what they got.

    @SlickRick..lmao....take a look at your posts chump change. I think some of the mods should really look at people like yourself who have shit for brains posts on a regular basis and lock them up. Your just wasting web space with that shit. As far as my responses go....those type of responses are only geared on the posts from people who post bullshit information. It's pathetic to see that people just come on here and make shit up as they go along and it's obvious the ones that do it.

    aybesea said meritline said "sure" they would get SONY. That is complete and utter bullshit and everyone that has attempted to contact either meritline or cdrdvdrmedia.com knows it is bullshit. That is the kind of stuff that gives people false perceptions about sites, and NOT just meritline.

    Meritline has had other issues, but so have about five other sites I can think of off hand. When you deal with the volume that some of these online sites do, of course you are gonna have an unsatisfied person here and there. But to come on and state false facts and give others wrong info..well that's just plain garbage.

    The bottom line on this thread is that aybesea asked for "ACCU" disks and got "ACCU" disks. "PERIOD." When you are trying to purchase inexpensive media and you have no clue what you are getting....then how the hell can you turn the blame on ANY site?

    Now, had those disks been cracked and meritline said they wouldn't issue a refund, which is "very possible" then that is a different issue. But to bash a site on a couple of different threads when the product on the site was "ACCU" and the disks they got were "ACCU" is senseless and not the fault of the online merchant.

  18. I think aybesea has his points. I mean do you know what went on between the conversation between him and cdrdvdrmedia. Although I've never had any experience with cdrdvdrmedia, but I've shopped around the internet long enough to know that some companies will just say anything to get your money. Besides I recall cdrdvdrmedia used to distinguish between white tops and silver tops. If what aybesea said is true, he asked for white tops and they sent him silver tops. Thats bait and switch. If you look at resellerratings, cdrdvdrmedia has about a 5 rating. Thats pretty bad. I know that usually people post bad experiences, but think about it, why are they operating under two(maybe 3) different names when its the same company. Naming 5 "other" companies that have the same issues is not an excuse.

  19. @Supreme2k, thanks for that PM, it was funny.

    @Lanevo, where are you getting this information on reseller rating? I know there are many sites, but i'd like to know which one you are using. Also, I have never personally used Meritline so I have absoultely no reason to try and be an advocate for them. By you saying that I wasn't there for aybesea's conversation with Meritline, that is obvious and goes without saying. However, I didn't need to be there. If you use your brain just a little, you can see that it is obvious what they are saying is B.S. You don't need to be there. It's called common sense, and I damn sure have plenty of it. I can think of at least 7 different people who have contacted either meritline or cdrdvdrmedia.com and have been told the exact same thing. That they cannot guarantee what gets shipped.

    Furthermore, it makes absolutely NO SENSE that a rep would tell ANYONE that they would DEFINITELY get "SONY" disks because think about it....when the person checked them out and saw they weren't "SONY" they would almost assuredly return them. By saying "we can't guarantee" what you get..they are covering themselves from all angles. That's why with that response, I told myself when I got my order, if they were NOT SONY, I would keep them anyway, because I know even the LD's are pretty damn good with an exception here and there. They aren't bad enough for me to return.

    However, had they told me "SURE" i'll get SONY, and I saw I got LD's, I would of sent them right back because they tried to bullshit me. Also, as far as your "bait & switch" goes, there are MANY other scenarios that could and probably did take place on the phone conversation.

    Being that the order was placed over the phone, it is very possible an error was made and the silver tops were sent instead. Hell, what would happen if they got 1000 SONY's? A mistake could of occurred like that too. But the point is that regardless of all of all of this nonsense, when you purchase non-branded media such as "ACCU" it is a crap shoot. Anyone who has done research on this site would know that. aybesea rolled the dice and didn't get the numbers they wanted. When you gamble, you can't expect to always win.


    As far as why cdrdvdrmedia would have three different sites, I can give you ample reasons as to why. How about the word "subsidiary" or "paralell." You do know how many companies have products under countless different names, right? One thing you are right about is that five other sites have nothing to do with this experience, however, look on this forum and it is clear as day that MANY more people have had positive experiences with cdrdvdrmedia.com and Meritline then have had negative experiences.

    As a matter of fact, under that "CONSUMER WATCH" thread above this one regarding "MERITLINE" damn near every single person who responded to it had "POSITIVE" experiences, with one or two exceptions. And ironically, the person "supatrupa" who made a a tornado out of a piss storm came back and said it was "UPS" who was at fault, and NOT Meritline..lmao..so I think on that thread alone..."aybesea" is now alone by themselves as the only person who was bashing Meritline. So in that thread it's Meritline 18, Aybesea, 1. Yea, that common sense just shifted from 4th gear to turbocharge...It's real obvious what the deal is.
    Quote Quote  
  20. Oh, by the way, I just checked out "resellerrating.com" which I'm sure is the site you were referring to. First, let me say that abysea purchased those disks from "Meritline" not cdrdvdrmedia.com. I just checked meritline's reseller rating and it's at 6.6. Better then average. But ONLY 28 people have posted reviews so that isn't accurate. One or two screwballs and the entire review can be completely inaccurate either way.

    I also checked cdrdvdrmedia.com..and...I'm really surprised you even bothered posting about resellerrating garabage from that site because a WHOPPING "seven" yes, count em'. "7" people have posted results. lmao....you call those statistics? Another thing that is funny is out of those "SEVEN" people, just about all of them posted positive numbers. There were a couple of people who posted 0's for repeat purchases so that dropped their numbers down drastically. ..lol..seven people....If everyone on this site alone who praised cdrdvdrmedia.com, myself included, went to that site and posted our "10's" cdrdvdrmedia would be at an "8" average in a FLASH! So that reseller rating deal has no weight whatsoever.

  22. Yea, I am using Resellersratings.

    By you saying that I wasn't there for aybesea's conversation with Meritline, that is obvious and goes without saying. However, I didn't need to be there. If you use your brain just a little, you can see that it is obvious what they are saying is B.S.
    I have plenty of common sense. I've done enough shopping and research for computer parts online to know that there are plenty of online companies that lied to get money. If you call them, they will say yes to everything you ask them, of course after payment is made, that flies out the window. I'm not sure about meritline because I've never done business with them(maybe I will in the future, but Rima is doing me good right now). I am saying that it is a FACT that Meritline is a bad company, I just have an OPINION that they don't seem that great with my basis on resellers ratings. My point regarding the phone conversations is how do you know that aybesea didn't get an a$$hole customer service representative when he called that just said yes to all his needs? I just don't think you should blatenly call him a stupid liar when you don't represent either the company nor the customer.
    Your OPINION on the company is that its good, obviously based on your experiences with them.

    As far as why cdrdvdrmedia would have three different sites, I can give you ample reasons as to why. How about the word "subsidiary" or "paralell." You do know how many companies have products under countless different names, right?
    You're right. Most of these companies are BIG companies that have real store fronts. Now why would a small media selling company have 2 or 3 different online , take up less web space,store fronts? It would be easier to handle, etc. I have my own thoughts on why, but I'm not going to voice them because they may or may not be true.


    You're having a good experience with them, so continue using them, but don't call other people stupid if he or she had a bad experience and THINKS its the company's fault.

    To you, the ratings have no weight and are inaccurate. That its your opinion. Not everybody has a the same opinion as you. You like them because you had a good experience with them. The person who has a bad experience with them won't say they are good.
    Another note, they are the SAME COMPANY. Their ADDRESSES are exactly the same. I feel the ratings can be combined, but of coures, that is just my opinion. Whether you accept it is another story. Oh and better than average isn't good. So I can get my order screwed up ONLY 40% of the time.

  24. @LanEvo, first, I'm not sure what post you read but I didn't call anyone "STUPID." I did say they were lying and that's what I believe. They didn't get any A$$hole rep because it makes no sense to lie to someone when they can return the item just on that basis alone.

    And just like my "five" other sites had no bearing on this particular case, the same holds true for all of your bad experiences with "other" sites. You continue to mention your experiences of how people just turned the tables after you made your purchase, but that means nothing on this topic regarding meritline.

    I've also said several different times that I have "NEVER" used Meritline. I have used cdrdvdrmedia and yes, my experiences have been great. But so have MOST others, at least on this forum. I think it is obvious what happened and you are blindly missing the facts. It should even be more obvious because as I said, I NEVER did business with Meritline, so I have no reason to commend them. The facts are there, you can sit there and try and make explanation after explanation, but noone told aybesea "SURE" they will get SONY. Aybesea knows noone told them that as well.

    I won't even bother explaining why those comapnies would have different websites, since you actually responded by saying that "7" posts on 28" posts respectively for cdrdvdrmedia and meritline hold weight in your book. That statement there really takes the cake.

    @Options2000, the ORDER ID# of those Sony disks is "102-010." I'm sure now that the Sony ID tag is posted, aybesea is gonna hop on that id# and order some ACCU/SONY disks with the quickness. 8)

    Defense,

    You dumb ass, if you look at the date of when I became a member it has only been a month and a few days. So next time you got something to tell me, try and come up with some better shit than that.

    There you go with your "facts" again. You weren't in the conversation so you don't know what went on, so don't comment on it. Sorry you didn't call anybody stupid, you called people senseless. I could give you a bunch of reason to lie. First, to get your money. Then they send you the wrong item. They probably inflated the shipping charges. When you try to get an RMA, the rep just lies again saying the order is correct so a 15% restocking fee. Then the buyer has to pay shipping plus a 15% restocking fee if they want to return it. Or they could just not pick up the phone and your stuck with items you didn't order. I'm not saying Meritline/CDRDVDRMedia does this, but there are online companies that do this.

    I won't even bother explaining why those comapnies would have different websites, since you actually responded by saying that "7" posts on 28" posts respectively for cdrdvdrmedia and meritline hold weight in your book. That statement there really takes the cake.
    Why shouldn't they hold the same weight in my book? They are the SAME company with the SAME address. If they had different addresses then maybe it wouldn't.

    All I'm trying to say is, your experiences may not be the same as others. I don't think you should go and bash other people that have had a bad experience with a company that you've had a good experience with.

    Yes Meritline will eat the charges. And who gives a sh_t as long as its not the customer. You are a customer yourself are you not?

  28. @SlickRick, lol...yea, and in the month you've been a member, you've only had every other post on every other thread say that Verbatim disks are great. Very productive information since you've posted that 40 times in your 77 posts Verbatim are great disks. I knew what I was saying when I said it gooftroop.


    @LanEvo, you continue to repeat yourself and not see the facts. You are still using your experiences with OTHER sites as reasoning for why a rep would lie. The rep didn't lie, aybesea did, and it's very obvious, and the bottom line is "CONSUMER BEWARE." You are familiar with that term aren't you? Let's just suppose abeysea isn't full of mularky and the rep did say "sure" we'll send you SONY and a BLOCK OF GOLD while we're at it, STILL, even then, abeysea is at fault. The made the purchase over the phone, so they can't print anything out. And it is very simple.. BUYER BEWARE. ESPECIALLY, AND I DO MEAN, ESPECIALLY, when you purchase something of the net.




    @simonoko, thank you for that advd info post. I've never seen advdinfo post such simplified info like that.

    Here's what advdinfo AND DVDINFO by nicw posted for me.

    ACCU=SONY
    ACCU=SONY

    Oh, but you just strengthened my point even more because aybesea actually purchased "ACCU" disks and got "LD's" so they got what they were SUPPOSED to get. Not Meritline's fault or their "CC" companies fault, or their mothers' fault or their father's fault or dvd2dvdrhelp's fault.

    By the way, of course i'm a consumer and that's why you once again amplified my point. I don't have any reason to be an advocate for Meritline, ESPECIALLY when i've never even used them myself. But in this scenario, they sold the customer what they said they were going to sell them, and the customer isn't happy they lost the crap shoot and want to turn the blame to the merchant.

    When you are trying to provide "unbiased" information like I am, you have to put yourself in the shoes of the merchant. Let's say you owned Meritline simonoko. You own meritline and sell a customer 500 ACCU disks as requested, they HOPE they are SONY, but you send them LD, regardless, WHY are you at fault? As I said, EVEN IF MERITLINE said "SURE" we'll send SONY, the customer is STILL at fault. They purchased ACCU, and by the results of that informatitve advdinfo test you provided, they RECEIVED ACCU. Customer is at fault, NOT the merchant. It's very, very simple. :P

    Of course I continue to repeat myself, because you've never proven any of it is wrong.
    What I am really trying to say is that you shouldn't bash aybesea and call him a lair. Why are you calling people senseless and lying when you, yourself, do not have anything to back it up. The reason I told you all the reasons that OTHER SITES would lie, is because you said " it makes absolutely NO SENSE that a rep would tell ANYONE that they would DEFINITELY get "SONY" disks because think about it."

    What facts do you have? That aybesea MUST be lying because you and several others had a good experience with cdrdvdrmedia?

    Yes, I agree "CONSUMER BEWARE" is the bottom line. Your analogy is way out of line because it is reasonable to think that a company that sells DVD-R media, would agree to send a particular brand of media. Its not reasonable to think that they would send you a block of gold. IF CDRDVDRMedia actually at fault. IF the company just said, we'll try, then he is at faulth. But this can never be proven because its his word against the rep that he spoke to. [/quote]

  30. This is my last post on this subject. Just because it seems that one of the other posters in this thread has a vested interest in being sure that MeritLine (CDRDVDRMEDIA) does more business (maybe he works for them???) doesn't mean that they are reputable. I have recounted (truthfully) my experience with this sleazeball outfit. The rest of you can do as you wish.

    And a special note for Defense - WTMKF!
