Love the show, HATE THE PACKAGING!!!
The show itself is an easy 5-star for me. The packaging on the other hand is dismal which is how I rated it. Other reviews have already covered the details of the horrible packaging (which I should have heeded) but I've waited a really long time for this series and it looks like the Blu-ray is nowhere in site. BTW, another reviewer was kind enough to provide a YouTube video showing the packaging here: [...] As stated by others, I have several DVDs that are not only scratched but some have many scratches on them. I'm amazed they played without problems, however, there's no way they'll survive if constantly pulled in/out from the cardboard package. The only way to minimize/stop the damage already done is to purchase ultra slim cases and put the discs in there. My package also had a duplicate season 4 disc 2 where season 2 disc 1 is supposed to be. So I'm missing season 2 disc 1. I contacted Sony directly, as I didn't want to go through the hassle of returning the entire set, to get a replacement but haven't heard back. I'll update this post once that happens. I had also purchased the King of Queens which came in two spindles. This is also a hassle but less damaging to the discs which I wish the Seinfeld set used in order to at least minimize the damage to the discs BEFORE the customer gets them. So if you haven't gotten this series yet and you can be patient a bit (or a LOT) more, I'd wait for the Blu-ray. I'm sure they're coming some day since TBS/TNT has shown or still is showing the HD versions. 2014-Jan-03 Update: So trying to get a simple replacement from Sony turned out to be such a pain and inconvenience. It took something like 6 or 7 emails before the different support people could figure out what was needed even though I provided all the info they asked for. Then, they asked me to send the DVD back before they'll send a replacement which would have taken 3-5 weeks. Yes, weeks. Since I'm within the return window, I just used the Amazon return process which I should have just done in the first place. So if you run into an issue and you have to get a replacement, just use Amazon.
