Default Need Self Inking Address Stamp Recommendation

I hope this is the right thread. I was thinking of getting a self inking address stamp. I liked this one from Amazon. Does anyone have any experience with these?

Thank in advance for your help.

I have one that is similar and it sucks! Never fully stamps my address. There's always blank spots, like the stamp didn't make full contact with the paper. KWIM? I've tried it on several envelope types and none of them were consistent. Works just fine on a sheet of paper/cardstock. But envies? NO WAY!

A couple of years ago, I bought an address self inker at Walmart. You had to mail in the form that came with it with your name and address and they sent you the stamp. Dad uses it all the time. Can't remember the name of it...

My daughter got me this one from Vista Print. It's one of those things where the stamp is "free" and you pay shipping and handling of about $6.00.

It is a great little name and address stamp. Stamps cleanly and lasts a long time. I use mine a bunch and I think I've had it for over a year. Still works well.

Default self inking stamp

I have to second vista print. I have gotten TONS of stuff from them. Its not just for businesses. I received an offer for 250 free business cards- didnt have a business then, so I made family cards with our names and phone numbers on them, so if we met a mom at the school or out, we could just give them the card instead of looking for paper etc. I have about 8 of their self inking stamps and love them....had one make with my business name on in, home address, handmade by, Merry Christmas etc. the possibilities are endless, and they are free. I got a pen, 250 business cards, 2 car magnets, 25 note cards, sticky pad,tote bag and self inking stamp all free with shipping of 13.95...I think that's pretty good for all free stuff- personalized for me!

Ditto for this one from Vista, I've had mine for 2 years & use it alot...it still works great after 2 years or is it 3 (time goes by too fast), still lots of ink. Mine is a household address stamp for bills etc. I should get one for me for my crafting but never thought of it till this post. I love it!
