Me too, they are the best place for blank media.

If you are in no rush wait untill they have a 99p or £1.99 delivery weekend, they happen every 2 months or so.

I've twice bought cheap media from bigpockets and twice I've been stung. First 100 had faults (basically holes in the dye) which I didn't find out about until I'd opened the third box almost a year later. Second lot had fake Taiyo Yuden codes which meant the burner tried to burn them too fast by default. After a year many of the disks were unreadable anyway. In both cases by the time I found out about the problems I'd lost the invoices or it was more than a year later.
I now buy from SVP who seem unwilling to sell utter junk in the first place. Also I now buy proper Taiyo Yuden media, because although I love a bargain I also hate losing 4.5GB of data (especially when it's photos etc.).

i had big problems with bigpockets, and refuse to enter the name in my browser.Couldnt care if they were giving things away...as its normally fake
Generally use SVP, they are about the best there is when it comes to customer service.More than can be said for bigpockets.

have used UKDVDR in the past, but only because a relative works at Hornby which is on the same industrial estate and he would collect my order.

Have just used SCAN for the media and cases for the first time as i now get free p+p on all orders.

would have bought from SVP , but the O/O/S items has been bad and ive not been able to get everything i want.
