I use these all the time. Last order the metal closure tended to break off if you opened and closed the envelope more than 3 or 4 times. Not sure how the new batch will be
I ORDERED THESE ENVELOPES TO FILE OUR YEARLY INVOICES AND RECEIPTS. THEY DO THE JOB BUT ARE MUCH THINNER THAN OTHER NAME BRAND CLASP ENVELOPES I HAVE USED IN THE PAST. I DEFINATELY WOULD NOT CALL THESE "EXTRA-HEAVYWEIGHT." THE CLASP HOLE REINFORCEMENT FELL OFF OF MOST ALL OF THE ENVELOPES WITH MY INITIAL CLOSING. IF I HAD TO OPEN THE ENVELOPES AGAIN THEY DEFINATELY FELL OFF. THE PRICE WAS RIGHT AND THE ENTIRE BOX OF FILES WILL JUST BE PUT IN STORAGE. IF THESE ENVELOPES WILL BE OPENED AND REOPENED MANY TIMES I WOULD DEFINATELY BUY NAME BRAND.
We purchase the 10" x 13" Manila Envelopes because the bigger size makes it very easy to insert all the paperwork that goes with each persons tax return. I have tried small envelopes in the past and the 10" x 13" envelopes work so much better. The clasp also make it easier to use than the traditional (only) gummed envelopes. These are a must for our office.
