More than once I've found that someone's "destash" price was higher than the price of the item elsewhere on the internet. Good call!Laura Brackenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02364303327135116922noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2205234273837988960.post-74502872316586342912016-03-14T20:42:55.367-07:002016-03-14T20:42:55.367-07:00I buy a lot of destash from many different sites. ...I buy a lot of destash from many different sites. Most of the time I am satisfied. Shipping can be an issue especially if the item is very cheap. I feel that some vendors could keep their price down by cutting back on packaging. I really don't expect to get a few destash beads in organza bags and boxes with tissue etc. Just wrap them in some bubble wrap. If it is delicate, sure take a little more time but most things can just be wrapped in bubble wrap. The other thing that I have learned is to check the retail cost. Today I was considering buying some bracelet bars from a vendor. I checked a retail vendor and they were 1.00 cheaper So do your research and you can find some great deals<br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2205234273837988960.post-15630037330695272332016-03-14T19:44:48.352-07:002016-03-14T19:44:48.352-07:00Hey Sue!

I myself have no used supplies so mine are all new mailers but still I charge exact shipping. And throw in extras...because I can and it makes me feel good.
