Is that a good price for bags for chamber machines? Wesch's are £9.30 for 200. Now if they're embossed, then Wow.

Those bags aren't embossed.

Not particularly. Vacuum-pouches.com are £21.60, although you have to buy 1000, & there's a delivery charge under £50, but they do a wide range, including embossed.

Doesn't everyone use rolls for embossed bags anyway? I find them much cheaper, as well as more convenient.

I haven't asked them but I guess they'd do you fewer per pack (mine all come in packs of 100 or 200). If it's not urgent I will ask them (I need smaller packs of very large bags, & they've been extremely helpful with other stuff).

I use rolls and bags for embossed. Bags are much cheaper than rolls - or were when I last worked it out.

I keep both in, but 'by the metre' bags have always worked out cheaper. Are you finding otherwise from your supplier?

That said, I've not bought any for quite a while.

They've grossly overestimated the RRP of the stuff on their site, but good "reduced" prices non-the-less. £200 RRP for a 3ltr vertical sausage stuffer? £100 for 50m of 28cm embossed vag bag rolls?! Pfft :roll:

Very tempting to order the 7ltr sausage stuffer, although the missus may kill me when she sees the size of it.

Ha! I've just told her it makes a lot more sense than buying the 5ltr version I was going to get for £40 more, then grossly underestimated the size when she asked. Time to place my order! :lol:
