Pull off strips makes the difference.

My wife who has passed away always used these envelopes and I became used to them and how easily they are used. The pull off sealing strip really works well and always seals. Great product.
Unbelievable well thought out envelope! I just folded the letter in thirds and it just slipped in totally enveloped by the envelope. The flap easily closed without a lick after removing the protective paper over the self sticking glue strip. The only issue I had with this envelope was what to do with the protective strip of paper after removal when. Eureka! I just slipped it into the envelope with the confidence no one would be the wiser as the security coded interior would keep it well hidden until opened by the unsuspecting recipient. What more can be said about this awesome envelope.
I have no problem with the envelopes themselves but it is the sealing that I have an issue with. Once you peel and stick the flap there is a part of the flap at each end that isn't gummed and therefore doesn't give the total seal I would like in a Security envelope.
I purchased these not based upon price but upon need. Of course price played a factor plus these were on sale. I needed security envelopes with self- stick so I wouldn't need to lick the glue on the envelope to secure it That said the self-stick doesn't stick- not one of these envelopes could just be closed as marketed I always had to find tape to secure it. They are a bit flimsy (thin) becasue when I looked closely I was able to view portions of the print on the document I was mailing. Lucklly the glue didn't hold and it's easy to remove the doucment and wriapt it in plain paper for security. In which case you need good tape (not store brands) to secure the envelope.
Great product. Easy to use and makes mailing fast and easy. The only way to improve the envelopes is to put more glue on the flap. Sometimes I have to add a piece of tape to make sure it stays closed.
