Where do you get packaging materials?

Both Wilkinsons and Poundland have lots of packaging material at much cheaper prices than places like Staples and the larger supermarkets."There are not enough superlatives in the English language to describe a 'Princess Coronation' locomotive in full cry.

Another vote for ODL Packaging. There is no one better for packaging. Also if you buy direct from them on their website http://www.odlpackaging.co.uk/ when you register you get a code for 5% off with no min spend. Bubble wrap is normally delivered next day by DPD who give you a one hour delivery slot and live by the second tracking.0

Both of those though are dearer than buying on eBay, even allowing for the postage costs.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.

For padded envelopes, Soundswholesale on Ebay are the cheapest. For the C/0 size I use, they are cheaper than ODL & Envelope Master.0

I use plastic takeaway containers for small items - either reused and cleaned thoroughly or buy them online cheaply. They are very lightweight and very strong so protect the item well."If you can dream it, you can do it". Walt Disney0

I have to say that as a buyer, that would put me off."Love you Dave Brooker! x"

I've not had one complaint and a big proportion of my feedback says well packaged, so it appears most people are not bothered. Some have even messaged me to say what a good idea it is."If you can dream it, you can do it". Walt Disney0 -

I have bought purely on price before and have been disappointed- so I now know which sellers I prefer and which I avoid.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.
