Did I get a good deal?

I bought 17 standard MDs, a mix of Sony and Maxell brand: 4 of them are 74min and 13 are 80min. All discs are new/sealed, except for 2. Total amount including shipping came out to $22.50. Just wondering if that was a good deal, as I saw people selling 5-packs for $15 (including shipping). I'm just curious why people are overpricing MDs on ebay.

That's not a bad deal considering it included shipping. Best price I've ever seen for 80 minute blanks was the Sony 5 pack 80 minute Colors going for $1.97 at Sears. You may want to check it out next time you're near one. These were reduced some time ago, however, and may not be available.

Some blanks are collectables and can bring pretty good prices on eBay...

I am noticing here in Japan , Clearance tables , with stacks of MD 's more and more ,..... so I would think just Getting the MD's new unsealed would be good , might not be much available in the US much longer .

Sony and others still make DAT tapes and cassettes, so media may still be available, just not as plentyful as we would like it.

and yes Chrisg, sounds like you got a pretty good deal, try pro-tape for bulk prices, seemed OK a while ago, just didn't seem that interested on shipping em out of the USA
