Sealing of Staples 10x13 Envelopes

These envelopes hold up well and are great except when it comes to sealing. They don't seal as well as the envelopes of the same size with the strips that you take off before sealing. You have to really run your hand across the back of them to make sure they are sealed. Also if for some reason you need to reopen the envelope it doesn't open and close again like the envelope with the strips do.
I thought these were the envelopes with the pull-off strip...instead they are gummed and the flap hangs open so it won't fit in the same space as the strip one. It doesn't stick very securely so I add a couple pieces of tape to keep it closed.
While our office only uses Staples products due to their value and quality I'd like to take just a second to say that Ramona Munroe my account executive is probably the reason that I love Staples the most. We are an extremely small office and do not order a lot of merchandise but Ramona treats me as though I were the CEO of some multi-billion dollar company. I love the way Ramona Munroe treats me as a customer no matter how small my business is. She makes me feel like a million bucks!
I use these for business purposes. I didn't buy the cheapest I could find I thought these would be good. However I find that the adhesive is useless and I have to tape each envelope closed every time I use one. The paper the envelopes are made of is cheap. But the self-stick part is just baloney. I'll never buy them again next time I need these I'll buy the ones with the peel-off strips that protect the adhesive until using it.
