The plastic mailers are the outer bags, the sort of things you get clothes in if you buy from a catalogue or online store.I’m a Forum Ambassador and I support the Forum Team on the eBay, Auctions, Car Boot & Jumble Sales, Boost Your Income, Praise, Vents & Warnings, Overseas Holidays & Travel Planning , UK Holidays, Days Out & Entertainments boards.

Going back to your original question I would suggest you use up your 'old' jiffy bags first. I usually tape a printed address label over the front to make it look less scruffy. As long as you are not loading up your p & p much above the actual postage cost most people will be fine about this.
At a stretch I have used good quality carrier bags turned inside out and cut to size, as packaging. I am talking about eg Lakeland kitchen shop bags, or bags for life, etc, the ones that are of the same quality as mailing bags.0
