Cheapest Dual Layer DVD's ?

Options
The cheapest dual layer DVD's I have found are these at £1.66 each (i.e.£16.59 for 10 delivered).

Does anyone know anywhere cheaper or better than that please?

Many thanks

    Be aware that some DVD writers can be fussy about which media they'll work best with. You might not have a problem getting the cheapest, but then you might find some discs don't burn properly or last as long. Which is kind of a false enconomy. Many DVD writer manufactuers provide a recommended media list on their website, which might be worth checking out.

    Agree with Teak. If you buy cheap disks, you're going to end up with crap dye which means they either fail when you are burning, are unreadable on most dvd drives, or only last for a few months.

    I know someone who bought a load of dirt cheap dvds to burn films onto. They were so cheap there weren't branded - no writing what so ever on the top so it's difficult to tell which side to burn to. He was supprised when the only thing the disks would play on are the play station 2.

    I know they cost more, but get yourself some branded ones.

    I have spent 2 hours now looking for the cheapest Dual layer or Double layer as some call it on Google and this forum

    Here is the cheapest place.

    Not sure how to link but here is the information from the top bar

    bigpockets.co.uk/product.php?lang=&product=DVR8186-10

    The price is 75p per disc.

    I will wait till monday to make my decision just in case someone finds it cheaper.
