Hummingbird and Butterfly Gardening: Ziplock seed bags, 1 by beckygardener

Hi everyone!

I wanted to purchase some of the little ziplock seed bags but had to order far more than I will ever use. So I have quite a few units to sell to anyone interested here in this forum. Ya'll are my butterfly friends, so you get first dibs!

I'm not selling them to make any kind of profit, but just to recoup some of the money I had to spend to get what I wanted. I had to order 3,000 baggies as a minimum order. I only want to keep 250 of each type of baggie. (For a total of 750!) I spent almost $34.00 for this order (which included shpg. charges.) I am willing to sell them in groups of 50-100 each. And I want to give as many of my friends here the opportunity to get some, so I will limit the number to 100 of any one bag style, so you can purchase up to 300 total. (100 of each bag style)

Here's what I have:

2" X 3" Clear - $ .50 per 50 or $1.00 per 100
2" X 3" White Block/Clear - $ .64 per 50 or $1.28 per 100
2" X 2" Green - $ .53 for 50 or $1.06 per 100

These are all small zip-lock bags perfect for seeds.

I forget who sent me some seeds in ziplock bags who put a little piece of paper inside telling me what the seeds were instead of marking on the bag. I thought that was a great idea so that I could re-use the bag! So the white block/clear bags can be used for marking on, but I don't think I will do that on any I use. I like the paper in the bag idea better!

I also do not know how much it would cost to mail them out to you? They don't weigh much at all. Though 300 might be a couple dollars to mail. I can check with the post office to be sure. I'd prefer to receive payment from you first before I mail them to you. And I want to put an expiration on this offer only because I don't want to be dealing with dmail a month after I've posted this offer to ya'll.

The most you could get from me would be 300 (100 of each type of bag) for $3.34 plus mailing cost. Hey, ya can't beat that!
Edited post: Well you could beat that, but it would have to involve a much bigger order! I ordered these baggies from Fetpak. The price differences per bag are what the company charged me for them, plus the $6.00 shpg fee.

I hope I'm not breaking some DG rule by posting this offer. It is sort of like a co-op purchase.

Please post here on this thread if you want some bags and tell me what kind and whether you want 50 or 100 quantities.

The expiration for this offer will be December 1st. Does that sound fair enough? And I'm only dealing with screen names I recognize from this forum or if you have traded seeds or plants with me. I only have 2,250 bags and I know that they might go pretty quick. If not, then I will open it up on the co-op forum. I hope this cheap price helps some of ya out, as I hated spending so much on these little ziplock bags.

Here's a photo of what they look like.
