"I used them for many years for blank bulk 60 min [sp] 3 hour [ep] VHS tapes [50 per box]. I had fantastic results. Shipping was too high but I loved the product. I could use these tapes for several years and recommended them to others all the time. Around 2010, I noticed that the quality had dropped considerably. The tape media itself would be worn out in a month or two. The picture would snap and skip and was miserable to watch. Tried 5 different VCR's with no difference.
My last order was two 50 pack cases in July of 2011 (I buy far in advance). This batch is total garbage. I've had to throw away at least 50% of them. They were unusable right out of the box. It's been almost three years so I have no options. That's one BIG drawback to buying in bulk for future use.
With all of my many VCR's, all of these tapes howl and squeal when FF searching, they clunk while rewinding like the spools are just flopping around inside. They lock right up while recording and trip the VCR protection breaker [all the VCR's]. The sound comes and goes and it's very muffled and garbled and of course the picture snaps and skips. All these symptoms are right out of the box. The 50% I haven't thrown away have the symptoms but are not as severe so I'm struggling to use them when I must. If I use a brand name tape, all is well so the proof is in the puddin'.
Surprising, when I contacted Delta in 2010 about the suddenly shorter life of these tapes, I was told to "buy name brand tapes then". Now, with this 2011 batch, things are a WHOLE lot worse.
So it's live and learn as life goes on."
"I ordered 3 packages of Kinyo Cleaning Cylinders on 9/8/2009 and they were delivered on 9/12, total weight less than 2 ounces, price was reasonable for the items, HOWEVER shipping was anything but. The 3 packages totaled size is/was 2"x3"x3". They were shipped UPS in a box 17 1/2" by 10 1/2" by 2 1/2" and weighted 12 ounces, cost to ship was $11.96. If I added one addtional cylinder package the cost of shipping went up over 3 additional dollars. I would not buy from them again unless it was the only place selling the items that I needed."
