Title: Bought a set "NEW" on Amazon - Factory defects on most of these discs!!!
Review: Yes, I am sure that this was a NEW DVD Set. I bought it on Amazon and found that 5 of the 6 discs had a strange residue (probably some kind of cleaning solvent from manufacturing) which marred the disc surface and prevented reliable playback.Careful and proper cleaning has made two of the marred discs playable, but the other 3 are a lost cause. There are no scratches or any other mechanical defects, just some faint streaky marks which prevent the DVD player from reading the surface. I have tried to read these on a Toshiba, Panasonic and Sony DVD players -- all with no luck.Be sure to check your set as soon as you receive it. Good luck!
