Avery Half-Sheet Printable Shipping Labels, 5.5" x 8.5" Customizable Stickers, White, 500 Blank Mailing Labels, Great for Mailing, Shipping, Organizing, and More (5912)

I have always used this brand for shipping labels. When I ran out this last time, I looked at some of the generics out there and read the reviews. I really cannot understand how one item can be reviewed as "the worst ever" and others state "the best label ever." Are they receiving the same item from the same seller? It makes me wonder.These labels work exceptionally well in my laser printer. They come out very clear and not once has one of them jammed in my printer. If you only print one, you can still put the sheet with the remaining label on it back in the printer and it will print just fine. That seems to be an issue with some of the other off brand items out there. They state the backing is too flimsy to put it back in the printer to use the other label. So you pay for 500 and only get 250. Not a good deal after all.The other thing I love about these is that you can place these right over an existing label and it completely blocks the old label. You cannot see through it like you can with the cheaper labels.They also stick exceptionally well. There is not need to add additional tape to make certain it remains on the package.I will always pay more for the best quality.

I have been using this brand/style for over ten years now and I love them. I have been selling vintage vinyl on sites all over the internet since 2004 and it is a shame it took me so long to find this style.It is really useful having the half sheets so you get at least 2 prints per sheet and the TrueBlock that makes the sheet a little thicker really does block out and cover up old labels if you are reusing a gently previously used box or envelope. Unfortunately I picked up a box from Warehouse Deals that was NOT of the TrueBlock variety and I hate them because I was accustomed to heft of the other ones and while I use new LP mailers 99% of the time, I do reuse padded envelopes for shipping CD's, books, and cassette tapes and miss the TrueBlock in those instances.

For the first time ever, I Purchased 500 labels that, after opening, had all 4 corners bent up slightly. Now every print is a struggle to get the page to feed through my printer. Have to push them through at the start. How to rate this issue with stars? I don't know. Are these seconds from Avery? They had to be packaged in their box that way. Since there is no exterior damage.

These are by far our favorite address labels that we have tried. Per label, they are definitely more expensive than some of the other options out there (some of which we have tried and been disappointed by). Here are some reasons why these labels are better: 1) They stick to cardboard boxes better than other labels. We have not had any issues with corners starting to roll up or peel off the packages, and this has been a problem with other labels. 2) The sticky labels are easy to remove from the sheet. The importance of this cannot be under-emphasized. With the rounded corners on these labels, there is a nice place for you to bend/peel the label off, and this makes it much faster to put labels on a lot of boxes. Other labels where the sticky part is edge-to-edge on the sheet are extremely frustrating to use because it is really difficult to separate the label from the backing. 3) There is a perforated seam in the middle of the sheet that allows you to easily separate the two labels that are printed on one sheet. This is really nice because it is faster for me if I can separate all the labels first en masse and then put them all on boxes in one batch. 4) They feed through our printer nicely and do not cause jams.

Avery shipping labels :I am disappointed in the quality. the quality has changed, it is hard to peel off the base paper to apply to the shipping envelope. Formerly was so easy and adherence is great on both.

I finally decided to buy these in bulk because I kept having to go and buy more after a few months. I run a small business out of my home and these are perfect because I am too cheap to buy a dymo and because Dymo doesn’t come with wireless.

We have a business where we ship a lot of packages. These labels conceal what's behind them, making it easier to read the label. And, the adhesion is great.

I use these in my online business and have been for some time. I like how the new adhesive sticks to my poly based packaging much better than the previous formula. I rarely find improvements that are really an improvement, this was a welcome exception.
