I read somewhere in one of the forums that as SCS members we can get free shipping from clearbags.com. Can someone reroute me to this thread? I really would like to purchase these bags but don't want to pay the unreasonable shipping costs associated with the purchase.
I would just like the thin plastic bags to protect your cards when you go to sell them. I am interested in A2 size. Where is the best place to get them? I looked on the clearbags.com site, but it looks like these bags hold multiple cards.
I order from clear bags al ot and have never got a discount. Its actually funny that I was ordering from them online and one day noticed that the address on the shipping label. They are just over the hill from my house - a 10 minute drive max!! I now go to their warehouse and buy direct, no discount, just no shipping.
The sizes for standard 1/2 sheet card is #B45 - it will hold one card and envelope.
So these are intended for a single card only? I don't need to store my cards, I just need something to protect the individual cards that I am selling. Also, what size would I need for an A2 card?

Thanks! :o
I would def. check out the link I listed above and contact the seller. I emailed her with questions and she responded super fast with all the info I needed. I'm sure she would help you pick out the size you need. I think what you need is something like : 4 5/8 x 5 3/4
Yes, clear bags has wonderful service. I used clear bags size calculator and #B54 came up. Here is the description:
4 5/8" x 5 3/4" (117x146)
Crystal Clear Plastic Bags with Adhesive Strip on the Flap - Fits a single A2 or 5 1/2 bar (4 3/8 x 5 3/4) envelope and card
#B54
I use these bags to store my cards for sale at craft fairs since they hold one card and one envelope. If you have a thick card (embellishments that are raised they will be tight in the bag.
Thank you so much for all of your advice! I took a look at clearbags.com To order 200 of the A2 sized bags and 100 of the 1/2 sheet size bags, it was going to cost me $15 to ship these with the $5 handling fee... that is outrageous for shipping....
I'm planning to order A2 white envelopes from clearbags.com. I requested a sample, and their envies seem a bit nicer than the ones I've been buying at Staples, for about half the price! I'll order a lot of enveloples to offset the S&H fee, and orders over $40 don't have a small orders fee. Since I also use and love their clear A2 size bags, I'll add some to my order.
If you only need a smaller amount of the clear bags, I would check out the seller listed above. I have purchased from her, and had great service.
I figured out that it is actually cheaper for me to order my bags from SU at least in this case. If I actually can sell more cards then maybe I will place a larger order through them. Thanks again for all of your help!
