I'm finishing a project using Lightscribe CDs and need a few more..
Its possible some geekzoners may have unwanted Lightscribe CDs lying around..
I'd be interested in a purchase..I'm in Auckland
TIA

I'd be grateful to get them, and happy to pay postage :-)
Should I ping some money to yr account??; send prepaid envelope??
Interestingly, yesterday I had a 12 page document, I wanted to send to a friend
in Wellington. So I burned it onto a CD/RW, and put it into a polythene CD Mailer,
put on a $1 stamp and took it down to the NZ Post.
The teller there refused to accept it, saying it should be sent as a parcel .
I pointed out that its dimensions and weight ( 120*120*4 mm. 60 gm ) were well under
the letter specs (130 mm × 235 mm × 6 mm , 500 g) and it did contain a document..
She persisted, even when I pointed out it cost NZPost less to send than the paper version
and that it was recyclable. So I took it to the dropbox and sent it on its way; but having
an argument at a public service desk is not a good way to win customers yes?? / rant done/

Probably why pavement post boxes seem to be disappearing! We used to have 3 or 4 in the village and now there are none.
Very belated thanks to CeeGee for the Lightscribes.
which he posted without wanting payment for postage.
Unusual in this commercial age - Kudos and good karma :-)
Turns out they were DVDs, not CDs but still most helpful
