The computer store I got those at, used to have three cubic meters
of media on display at one time. Today, they have three cake
boxes under the counter, and if you buy a box, that's
"a third of the store stock". Your choices are "Verbatim"
or "Verbatim". Or perhaps "Verbatim".

And the Dynex jewel boxes, are now "Verbatim" brand. Small world.
I was lucky to get jewel boxes.

The staff even had trouble finding those in the store. Normally,
their computer has a grid ref inside the store, for where the
items are located. But not for that stuff. It was actually underneath
the cash register location. I guess they didn't have a place to
put it. One clerk seemed to think it was hidden in the back somewhere
("in the cage"), but eventually one of the other store staff figured
it out.

Yeah shits me that every shop in town sells Verbatim only. The 10-CD
stacker in my 1990s limo won't read them. So have to buy printable
discs on eBay that claim to be Kodak or some known brand, and hope they
work.
