I recently ordered bubble mailers and tape with the Ebay logo. I've been ordering these things for years with my quarterly coupon, but they are both different now, and not in a good way. The mailers are thin and transparent, and the tape does not stick! After I finish packing a box, it's already starting to fall off. Has anyone else experienced this.?

No, I haven't had any problems, at least not with the envelopes. I order the poly mailers normally, they're really nice and thick and the tape is extremely sticky and holds really well. I did order some smaller bubble mailers a few months ago that are good.
Can't say for the tape, I ordered a bunch last year and I'm still using it. It's been good tape so far.

I have been using the eBay branded bubble mailers for years. The only issue I've encountered is that sometimes the side sealing is off and not even. On one order a majority of the mailers were not sealed and fully open along one side. I contacted the distributor and received a free replacement. I always tape the top flap as a safety precaution.
The white bubble mailers are thinner and you can vaguely see what's inside. I've never used the tape.

I order the white bubble mailers in a couple of the smaller sizes occasionally. My most-recent batch are indeed way thinner & more transparent.

The new mailers are sufficiently transparent one can fairly read a book through them. But I find they are about the same thickness. Another issue is the adhesive which is not permanent as one can peel open the mailer after closed.
