Thats what I think, plus there is already so much plastic in the garbage dumps...
I never re-use mailers.

G-Nitro:Only things I will reuse are Amazon boxes when shipping out large box sets or game packages.
But it just pains me to see a perfectly good mailer go to waste.
G-Nitro: I always send out fresh, brand new Poly bubble mailers.

I hate those "pain in the a$$ to open" plastic bubble mailers you send out, especially since you can't really reuse them since they get so messed up (though I still do :P).
If it looks good and has been used once, then I will reuse it

If the mailers are still in decent shape, why not reuse them. No sense in wasting money you don't have too.
When the mailer is in good to decent shape, I definitely reuse. I also try to open as gently as possible.
Mailers are designed to be used over and over again. It's less about saving money, and more about having the mailer onhand and doing a small part to keep resource consumption down.
If the mailer is in no longer good shape and can't be used without significant tape, I take it out of the rotation. But I am always glad to get a package with markings of previous goozex mailing activity on it.
Whoa, I never even thought to reuse them! What a great idea!
I never have before but im going to start now the way you guys talk, noone cares a bit what shape the package is in as long as the game inside is good.
If you ask me Recycling an envelope is tacky, ghetto, and unprofessional! When you do a trade, you are doing business, with the buyer. It if you ask me it seem unprofessional to recycle it. You would never get a used Box if you got something from amazon, so a trade should be no different.
