Cheap padded envelopes?

p_wallior

Hi,

I am trying to purchase some cheap padded envelopes for posting stuff on Ebay. Has anybody got any tips for best prices?
More specifically, I would like the A4 size or the one just above.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Cheers,
Phil

I get mine from 99p store - 6 in a pack for the ones just over a4 size or 5 in a pack from poundland if i cant get to 99p store in next town.

I get mine from Poundland too. They're about A4 size, brown and 8 in a packet. As somebody else also mentioned, they also do a variety of sizes.

Wilkinsons sell padded envelopes I normally get mine from there

I buy bubble wrap and mailing sacks on EBay, I find it lighter and more flexible.

Staple on line I buy the light white envelopes - mail air.

Alright, thanks for all your suggestions.
I think I'll try Staples and Wilkinson, I can get there fairly easily.
I found Ebay way too expensive for that.

It really depends how many you intend to use and how much you can store at one time. One of the cheapest sources is Viking Direct see:

http://www.viking-direct.co.uk/home.do?browsemode=business&storemode=yes

They do boxes of 50 or 100 delivered to your door next day and they quite often have 3 for 2 special offers. Minimum order for free delivery is £ 30.

The A4 size works out about 12 - 13p each.

You often get a free gitft as well!
