I purchased the Maxell VP-100 from Amazon and it arrived promptly. However it DID NOT WORK at all. I placed it into my VCR and... nothing!!! It will not operate in play, FF or rewind. It appeared to be jammed. So I figured I just got a defective one. I used Amazon's return service (which was great and very easy to use!) to get a replacement. Unfortunately, the replacement did not work either. It is jammed just like the first one. This ia a awful product and I am suprised that it carries the Maxell name. Two strikes and you are out, this product is NOT RECOMMENDED at all! I found it strange that the label on the VHS cassette is a very generic looking black and white. I will return it again, but this time I will try another brand! NOT RECOMMENDED at all!

UPDATE: I just found out I can no longer return this second defective product unless I pay shipping because my window (one month?) has expired. I don't use my VCR much so I let this sit for a while. It's not worth the cost to ship it back, so it's going in the trash.
