I should have known better

I went to bestbuy bc they had a dvd-r sale. 50 for $60. it was a good deal 2 months ago when i bought them.

but the box was unmarked for the speed rating, which i have seen alot lately unless the are 4x or 8x

so i had the salesguy scan the product code
he said that it was a 50 pack of 2x dvd-r media

a good reliable brand...imation

25 of the dvd-r's were 2x in one 25 pack

and 25 were 1x in a seperate 25 pack

i lost :( and got scamed
 
I bought some of those, but considering I have an early DVD-R, I figure it doesn't matter for me anyway. Nothing is marked with any speed ratings.
