Scotch Heavy Duty Shipping Packaging Tape, 1.88 Inches x 54.6 Yards, 8 Rolls (3850-8), 436YD (400 m)

Ive tried other brands but they always come up short in any number of ways. This tape I always know what Im getting. At least by bulk-buying youre saving per roll.

Wrapping boxes for moving

This is probably one of the most heavy-duty packing tape bought so far, does the job and does it well.

Great product, I use this everyday for packaging my packages

Ive used this for some time. I will continues to use it.

Its sealing tape. It seals things nicely.

Was exactly what I ordered

This tape, Scotch 3850, is the best tape on the market for any normal consumer applications. This is the top of the line for Scotch (aside from some heavy industrial tapes that you dont need and probably wont find on Amazon anyway.) We have been using this tape daily for years, on anything from small boxes (1 book size) to really big boxes (30 x 24 x 20) and this stuff works great regardless of the application. Yes, its more expensive, but it is by far worth the investment if you ship regularly, or even as a one time purchase if you are moving or something. It sticks well to any type of cardboard, plastic or poly bags, etc. Your cost can be mitigated a bit by watching for price fluctuations and buying more at once. For this listing, Scotch 3850-8, the price is usually quite reasonable, but can creep up sometimes to a level where its not worth it. Anyway, something to keep in mind if youre shopping around--the part number for this tape is 3850. The -8 at the end only means its an 8 pack. So, Scotch 3850-6 or 3850-3 are exactly the same tape, just a different quantity of rolls in the pack. I dont usually write reviews, but here is why Im writing this one... I feel the need to respond to the reviews that say this tape does not stick well. It does. UNLESS it is OLD. So-- if you order this tape in any quantity and it doesnt stick well, it is past its shelf life and should be returned to the seller. You can usually tell if its too old just by looking at a roll from the side. If it has a tan/ brownish look to it AT ALL the tape is old. Also, when looking through a roll from the outside, this tape should be completely (almost freakishly) crystal clear all the way through the roll to the cardboard at the center. Bottom line: If this tape is still within a decent shelf life, it cant be beat. Its well worth the money. If the tape is old, the glue has degraded and the entire order should be returned. (And whoever sold it to you in the first place should have known better.) If you receive the tape in good condition, but it is then subjected to fluctuating heat/cold/humidity, etc. the shelf life will drop considerably, so dont throw your extra rolls up in the attic. :) Though Im not certain, the shelf life for this tape in its best condition seems to be somewhere between 1 and 2 years, probably closer to a year.

Good deal!

This is the best tape out there. Use it around the house all the time - not just for shipping. They have a small inexpensive hand held plastic dispenser with a tear feature, so I keep it handy and actually have two - one upstairs and one downstairs. No need for scissors with the small dispenser, which works well all the time. The dispensers have lasted already for a few years.
