Fuji E6 Mailer Expiration?

The latest Fuji E6 processing mailers are supposedly still marked as valid through 12/31/17. Anyone purchased any recently and can verify or not? Or better yet, anyone know if they're truly only valid through the end of 2017?

I'd try calling Dwayne's Photo directly. They're the ones who actually process film sent-in with these mailers.

Hello, I am new to this forum. Name is Joe from WV. I purchased Fujichrome e6 mailers from B&H, probably about 2003. I have five mailers and there is no expiration date at all on the mailers or the packaging. The address on the mailers is to Fujicolor Processing, Inc, PO Box 52008, Phoenix AZ 85072-2008. My question is are these still valid? Does anyone know?

I still have 5 from a total of 14 Fuji mailers, made up of leftovers and a more recent eBay purchase after I resumed shooting film. So far, Dwayne's has been honoring them. I used a couple earlier this year, and received no notice that they'd expire any time soon.

I've been using a blank adhesive label to cover the Phoenix P. O. Box and Zip Code lines and hand writing the updated address:

P. O. Box 837
Parsons, KS 67357

While the mailers I have are printed with info calling for a pair of First Class stamps, the rates have changed, and the thickness of the filled mailer now requires a charge of about $1.30. You're best off taking the mailer to your local USPS Branch unless your route carrier handles outgoing mail.

I was caught with a few Kodak E-6 and a couple of ESP-1 mailers when Qualex was shut down.
