Title: C3 size rigid mailing envelopes - Where to find these in the UK??
Post by: timelessmoviemagic on November 07, 2016, 05:23:18 AM

Hi all,

I'm currently trying to locate where to get the above size mailing envelopes from in the UK. C3 size is 324mm x 458mm which enables the package to ship as a small parcel.

Everywhere I am looking the mailing envelopes are the next size up which increases the postage cost which could put potential buyers off.

Speaking from experience I know Peter and many other US dealers send their packages in the ideal mailing envelope size of C3.

Does any UK dealer know where I can get these from?

Thanks
Marc

Hi Marc,

I'm not a dealer and haven't used their product but what about these:

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/100-x-C3-A3-Strong-White-All-Board-Envelopes-457mmx330mm-Mailing-Post-AllBoard-/131781166034?hash=item1eaec503d2:g:5BwAAOSw3mpXD6D0

They also have a pricier, more robust C3 alternative and seem to have a reasonable feedback rating.

You're welcome. Now all you have to do is get in touch with Royal Mail and negotiate their postage rates down.
