Excellent Envelopes

I frequently use envelopes for a variety of correspondence. These 6-3/4 inch easy close security-tint envelopes are what I purchase on a frequent basis. They are good for a variety of correspondence and other purposes. The price for this box of envelopes is reasonable and they are easy to find in the store. The security tint is very helpful especially when checks and other forms of payment have to be mailed. This is definitely an envelope that I would highly recommend to others.
The security of these envelopes as far as the tinting is adequate however the peel off label is not sticky enough. The ends of the envelope are not secured down as the pull off paper does not extend to the full length of the envelope closure. The pull off needs to cover the total top of the envelope and be made of a more substitive material. What I find I have to do is use tape each time I seal the envelope to ensure that it is secured properly. So while I'm paying more for the "convenience" of the pull off tape I'm paying even more on top of that because I have to use tape and it is another step for me in the process. That is a major issue with these types of envelopes that needs to be improved.
This smallest of the 'standard size' office/business envelopes is perfect for a check (security tint important in this case) or a note of less than letter size. I cleverly used it as a ballot secrecy envelope sent out with a #9 return envelope as part of a homeowner association mailing in a regular #10 envelope all without having to fold any envelopes. I'm sure others can think of other great uses for it. The price is good despite the easy closure and in my case I'm sure this closure was appreciated by the recipients.
This is an excellent product. The paste to seal the product make it easy for writers to seal the envelope without using liquid that may damage item enclosed. Product is also modernized and user friendly.
