Summary: Caveat Emptor - Inspect this set carefully!
Comment: I read the reviews about this set before I made my purchase. I saw the warnings about scratched disks. I looked at the Season 1-9 Thinpak set. I did the math and found I could save about $70 if I took the chance on this set instead. That was a mistake.
The first thing I noticed when I opened the set was that the Stargate logo on the outside of the cardboard (not metal) box was upside down. It was not a good first impression but certainly representative of what waited inside.
The disks were in two large cardboard "binders" with the booklet between them. Each "binder" held 9 sets of 3 disks in fold-out pouches. I began examining the disks in the first "binder" and found a few of them were indeed scratched. I tested them and they were still playable so I continued with my examinations.
The first "binder" held the disks for Seasons 1-5 and the first two disks of Season 6. All was well until I looked in the second "binder." It was an exact match of the first! There were two sets of Seasons 1-5 and two sets of the first two disks of Season 6. So much for quality control...
Two stars because I like the Stargate series and I applaud the attempt at offering the entire series in one DVD set, but that is being generous.

Summary: Bad discs, full of scratches and pits!
Comment: This box is great - with an amazing price point for 10 seasons' worth of TV entertainment, and the packaging is absolutely gorgeous. The plastic chappai regularly becomes a conversation piece. :-)
HOWEVER, the discs packed within are AWFUL and the third disc in the folder pages are very badly scratched and full of pits. Amazon actually sent me a replacement box, and that was only a partial fix as some discs in the replacement box was still unplayable.
I've only had the time to go through the first 9 discs, but I was very upset to see Disc 6 completely unplayable and I had to skip through 20 minutes in Disc 9.
I sincerely hope that the remaining discs fare much better, but I don't have much confidence. Random inspections on the other discs revealed similar scratches as well.
Very shoddy QA from MGM. I don't think I'll be picking up more of their releases after such a bad experience. This never happened with the X-Files box!

Summary: Awesome service
Comment: I ordered this series for a surprise for my husband and I chose to have it delivered next day. It came the next day and was so pleased with the quality of the product and the fact that it did in deed make it to me by the day I wanted it. That is awesome!! Thanks so much for the great price as well on the product and the condition it was in.

Summary: Great fun!
Comment: I found Stargate in reruns and did not understand all the "history" so I decided to buy the series and view it in sequence so I would know what was going on. I got the set intact and beautifully packaged. I looked through all the discs to check for scratches. There were none. My husband and I have now watched the first three dvds and everything is great. We watch 3 or 4 episodes a week...they are great fun!

Summary: Superb seller with a great item!
Comment: I only occasionally watched this show when it was in production, and tried to catch reruns when I could. When I saw this product as a complete series I was really excited and even more when it arrived very quickly after ordering. I have yet to make a serious dent in watching the episodes, but what I've seen thus far has been great! A pleasure to work with, and there were no issues whatsoever, highly recommended!
