Just opened up my last shipping supplies order & 1 bag has a bunch of little black flecks. Under the magnifying glass, it looks like tiny bugs & probably their elimination. There's also some red :-( It's not that big of a deal, but I shouldn't have to, ya know? They're new. It only affects 1 Ziploc bag full of ziplocks, what would you do? Call the seller? Complain? Ask for an exchange or would you just clean them off?
They're tiny, not like a giant bug or something real obvious. I'm sure they came from the storage warehouse.

I'd contact the seller. If they're from corijennin, definitely contact them because the ziplocks are supposed to be food grade/quality and there's no way you could use that for food. I don't about any other sellers though.

Hmnn. My order came in today but I haven't opened it yet. Guess I'll open the package tomorrow and see if my clear poly bags have the same issue or not.

Mine arrived about 3 weeks ago Val, I just hadn't opened them all until now. There were about 5 different ziplocs in there. I opened it right away & got the ones I needed right away, but the others have been sitting until I had somewhere to put them away in the new house. Today DH put together my adorable new organizer rack from Costco in rainbow colors, so I opened the rest of the ziplocks to file them away & that's when I saw these. So anyway, the stock you get on a current order will probably be very different than my order 3-4 wks ago.

"Adorable organizer rack from costco in rainbow colors" - sounds interesting. I wonder if it's what I have. Drawers in assorted colors on rolling rack? Comes in one vertical row or two rows of drawers?

Comes in one vertical row or two rows of drawers? Yup, that's the one, I got the one vertical row kind & he put it together today. I love it! Esp in the middle of this gloomy snowstorm, the colors make me smile.

I had to switch to threb after all these years of using CJ
I had the problem of the poly 10 x 13 bags being 1/8" short causing problems on inserting same size zips into them.
One order of 14 x 19 size ziplocks that I never order, but ordered this winter for bulky sweaters, arrived with the bags all folded/pleated up like an accordion, like they slipped inside the outer storage bag and got permanently pressed into a hundred crooked pleats/folds. She replaced them after I sent pics.
But the replacements are impossible to open at the top without tearing the top section right off the bag. I have to try 2-3 bags until I get one that will unlock properly without damaging the entire bag. I never bothered to tell her about it, I just switched and have no problems with threb so far.
All my orders come from the South Carolina warehouse, not from California, as I'm on the East Coast. I wonder who works there and if there is lax on quality control, or if it's just a drop ship place for her.

Thanks for the input, I'll let her know & we'll see what happens.

Just an updt. I've been so busy, that it took me forever to write her, but CJ is sending out replacements, asap. She dealt with it promptly & to my satisfaction. She said they had already found some like that & she thinks it's burnt plastic residue from the heat sealing. It doesn't much matter to me, as long as she's replacing them :-)

CJ is awesome, I ordered some mailers from her last month. The box got here and it was empty (first for me). If they had used tape to enforce the ends it wouldn't have happened. Anyway she didn't ask any questions and promptly send out a new order.

I had a few with the specs in my order, zoe. Not enough that I contacted CJ though.

I had an order of poly bags that were horribly smokey. She did send another order for free that stunk as badly as the ones I wrote about. She said that no one had ever complained about a smokey smell and blocked me from buying.
