I had a load of used record mailers in my garage but they got a bit damp and I binned them.
Selling a few records, so I want to buy a few of them, up to 50. Can anyone recommend a particular brand or design?

If you’re trying to limit cost, recycle the mailers you receive your new records in. Just the cost of some brown parcel tape then
Yeah, but don’t store the mailers in a damp garage. Hence my post!
Plus, I don’t have a regular supply as I am not buying much at the moment.
I bought my last lot about 6 months ago and struggled to find anyone who had any stock. I had to buy some pretty crappy but expensive ones.
I rarely get anything posted, I order and pick up from my local store.
But the last one I ordered from Amazon turned up in a paper bag
I have had stuff sent to me in these and they seem to survive.
Not the best but maybe the cheapest!
These guys. Always used them.
These aren’t great.
I’ve a few I can send you to tide you over but not as many as 50
This type offer more protection especially to corners.
Never had any problems. Couple of card stiffeners in there and they are pretty robust. Use them all the time for discogs/eBay without a problem.Why aren’t you keen?
See above. They will also take multiple records. I have used the envelope type but got complaints of damage to sleeve corners.
These look OK
These are the ones I had to buy, they aren’t great.
It will depend on the value of the records being sent. If they are £10 records the envelope type mailers with a couple of stiffeners would be reasonable - If the records have a higher value or are being sold as NM etc I’d go for a mailer with crumple zones - All British made mailers pale in comparison to US… No matter how sellers bang on about B flute and ‘strongest’ etc etc - The card is just not as good.
These Amazon type ones do a fair job with a couple of stiffeners and are easy seal
Cardboard is getting pricey these days
