Little plastic bags to send clothes in - where do you get them?

In the past all the clothes I've bought off ebay have arrived in a gray plastic bag sealed up. Now I'm sorting out some clothes to sell and I'd like to buy some to send them in. Where do you buy them from?

If you do a search for familycraft (on ebay) they do really cheap ones - you can get an assorted (10 big 10 small) for around £1.89. They're pretty good and very light - I use them for sending clothes etc. and it does save on postage costs so well better than using jiffy bags!0

Failing that, try a search for poly bags or mail/ing sacks0

The easiest way is to click "buy" and browse by category. You want Business, Office & Industrial> Packing & Posting Supplies> Mailing Bags, Pouches & Sacksblack-saturn wrote:What do you type in to find them? I've just typed all kinds of things in but nothing came up.0 -

You can get them free fro mroyal mail, they're special delivery bags, you used to be able to phone up and they would send them to you by the 50, can't remember the phone number at the mo i'm afraid but you can ask in the po and they'll give them to you, then just turn them inside out
My first ever Ebay Challenge. So far after fees etc for 2007 - £635.72 :T0 -

I also get the Special Delivery bags from Royal Mail. Like the poster above said, I turn them inside out and away they go! They're good because you can charge less for the P + P and hopefully get more interest in your item! Just pop into the Post Office and they give you them no problem - just don't say you're not actually going to send anything Special Delivery!!!:j30/7/10:j
