But you don't pay for them, your buyer does.

exactly, you should be charging for postage AND packaging, so you wont be out of pocket. For cheap packaging materials try the pound shop. I tend to re-use jiffy bags from my freebies, and then wrap it in brown parcel tape (10 metre roll from pound shop). :j

I try and keep my shipment cost down.

Ie am selling a few phone this week so they will be snet via royal mail next day delivery costing £6.00 but I only billed buyers £6.99 If i could get packing stuff for free then I could offer post cheaper (ie cost of post only and not packing)

I know what its like buying item with high p&p i sell glass items a lot so its the packing that kills my sales as a £6 glass item would have a £10.00 p&p just to the amount of packing needed to make sure it gets there safe....

You see where am coming from ?

I'm so glad your not one of those sellers that charge top whack for P&P then send the item wrapped in a bin bag. :T

Can't offer much advice except pondland and asking at shops and offices.

I was in Morrisons the other day and found loads of pieces of bubble wrap about 60 x 60 inches in between boxes of mushrooms and fruit, I asked the sales lady if I could have some and she said have as much as you like!!! I got loads. They are immaculately clean and flat, like new. Great for wrapping small items.
