IMPORTANT! Please Note: QuickNickel guarantees your discs will be free from manufacturing defects. If a manufacturing defect is discovered in your discs — either in the printing or the burning — QuickNickel will replace them or refund your money at its discretion.

 

If the discs that you receive play or burn on some but not all players/burners/drives, this is a compatibility issue, not a manufacturing defect. QuickNickel uses industry-standard DVD duplication equipment, and industry-standard, unencrypted, region-free DVD-R discs. However, it is not possible to guarantee that every disc will work on every device. This is especially true for older players and drives.
