Hi folks, simple question (from a simple man),
Do you buy your D'addario strings in the ten packs?
Just a yes or no would be helpful.
Thanks

Never bought a ten pack, although I usually get the three packs.

No
Too fickle for that kind of commitment...

Yes I do and I have multiple packs of them. I also use the 25 set commercial packs which can work out extremely good value.

No I don’t but interested in the Q are you doing some research for them Hi, no, I'm doing some research for myself because although I'm a pretty dedicated user of D'addario (and buy ten packs) I'm pretty "p'd" off with them because they make great strings, put them in hermetically sealed envelopes (to keep them "factory fresh" (then squeeze ten sets into a small card boxes only 1.5" thick which ensures that by the time they reach you, the envelopes are punctured, rendering the whole pack most definitely NOT factory fresh.
I've raised this point with their customer service repeatedly and been told , effectively that it isn't an issue, as I'm the only one who has complained.
