 buy this set in spite of its serious packaging flaws September 5, 2010

if you are reading this review, then you are already interested in and familiar with the show, but want to know more about the packaging for this dvd set after hearing some nightmare stories. this set is seriously flawed in its packaging design. however, you should buy it anyway!
as many have experienced, the cardboard packaging causes discs to become scratched up and unplayable on some dvd players. it's just a terrible inexcusable design. the outcry from slighted buyers was very loud as you can see from all the negative reviews on amazon. and as a result, this dvd set is often on sale for very, very low prices. that is why you should take advantage of this situation.
the difference in price between buying this dvd collection versus buying all ten seasons as separate individual sets is significant. sometimes the difference can even be over $100 depending on when you're looking. i bought my set for $80, i.e. only $8 per season! buy this all-in-one set and put the good chunk of money saved toward buying a decent blu-ray player instead. a reasonably recent standalone blu-ray player's lens can read these scratched dvds without a problem. for example, the scratched dvds in my sg-1 set all work flawlessly on the sony bdp-s570.
let's face it, you were going to upgrade to a blu-ray player at some point anyway. if you do so with the stargate money you saved by buying this admittedly blemished dvd collection instead of ten expensive separate seasons, then after you finish watching the last disc of season 10, you'll still have a blu-ray player lying around. not bad. not bad at all.
just remember to store the dvds in a separate dvd holder with soft sleeves. the cardboard packaging for this dvd set is truly god-awful, after all.

This was a smart purchase for me . I am a huge fan and I got a great price. The DVD'S have a lot of extras , plus the original full length versions of all the episodes I have seen so far.

I thought, "OK, some of the disks come scratched, but how bad can it really be?"
The answer is, "Shockingly bad."
This packaging should go down in DVD history as one of the dumbest ideas ever. DVDs are sandwiched into cardboard sleeves that only cover half the disc. This is not enough to hold the discs in place during shipping, so they fall in and out of the sleeves, getting scuffed in the process. Some managed to get serious radial scratches, which is about the worst thing that can happen to a DVD.
Whoever designed this packaging should be fired.
I am going to try playing all the discs before sending this back because I have no confidence that I won't get exactly the same result with another set. The packaging just about guarantees damage.
You'd be better off downloading episodes from torrent sites than buying this and that would serve MGM right. The price is good, but I would gladly have paid $20 more for decent packaging and undamaged discs.

I have watched 10 DVDs from the items. One DVD has problem in playing since it has physical damage. I expect a better quality control when I purchase it from Amazon.
 Only 4 intact discs out of the ENTIRE SET August 19, 2010

Bought these at Fry's. They go back tomorrow. Out of the entire set, there were only four discs that didn't *arrive* with scratches; a couple of them only slightly, most of them badly. The very first disc wouldn't play right out of the box; it began stuttering about two hours in on the first play. The worst discs actually look like somebody dropped them in gravel, then stepped on them a little.
That's almost a 93% damaged disc rate out of the box.
MGM should recall this collection ASAP.
