I had the same experience. I loved the Rico Reserve Classic reeds, and then when they changed to D'Addario packaging I got at most 2 good reeds per box. I later was told by D'Addario reps at an event that they had changed the design of both the Reserve Classic and the Reserve when they changed the branding. Never bought another box from them. Ultimately found that V21's worked reasonably well for me, before switching on to Peter Leuthner's and then Behn Aria and Brio.
