The number around the hole reads correctly from the "label" side.

I've just bought some of these from their store in Tottenham Court Road,
London, and they have a fatal manufacturing fault.
They're on sale at 50 for £11.99 and if you buy one pack you get one free.
Sounds great, don't it?
Only one small problem. There's no printing on the backs of them so you
can't tell which side to bloody well record on.
I've looked at one through a 15* watchmakers eyeglass and there really is
no way I can tell which way up they go.
PC World *must* have known they had a manufacturing fault when they bought
them and must have decided to sell them off so cheaply as a result.
Doesn't matter how cheap they are though. Under British consumer law
unless they specifically state they're sub-standard, they're misrepresenting the
product and you're automatically entitled to a replacement or a refund and
it's your choice not theirs.
So now I've got to traipse all the way back there tomorrow and demand a
refund! I don't think I'll go in there again.

nemo, you really are a DUMB *****!

CDRs are blank CDs. they have no writing on them whatsoever. I don't need a
fucking "eyeglass" to tell which side up they go.

you can feel which side is the right way up. underneath, is smooth plastic.
on top is the actual CD layer which is stuck onto the plastic.

but i don't have to feel my CDs up to know how to orientate them. it's
pretty easy to see the difference.

i'm really glad you're not my customer. i occasionally get dumb asses
wanting to do business with me. i get rid of them quickly, but not before
taking some bux off them. call it a fine for being st00pid.
