  The present invention relates to a reciprocating envelope that functions so that it can be used as a reply envelope after being used as a forward envelope.

  When renting a CD or DVD, a method of going to a rental shop, selecting a favorite one from the shelves in the store, and taking it back through a predetermined procedure at the counter was adopted. However, in recent years when the Internet has become widespread, customers do not go directly to rental shops, but a service that delivers CDs and DVDs ordered through the Internet to their customers' homes, so-called Internet home delivery rental services have been implemented.

  In this home delivery rental service, the store accommodates CDs and DVDs in delivery envelopes and encloses reply envelopes, and the customer puts the CDs and DVDs that have been viewed in reply envelopes and put them in a post box. It is a system for posting and returning. Recently, a reciprocating envelope that can be used both as a delivery envelope (outbound envelope) and a return envelope (return envelope) has been proposed.

A “reciprocating envelope sheet” according to Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2010-52743 can be used both as an outgoing envelope and a return envelope, and can print information necessary for outgoing mail.

Are formed in such a manner that the reply peeling portion and the reply sealing portion are detachably bonded, and the forward transmission peeling portion and the forward sealing portion are detachably bonded.

  This “reciprocating envelope sheet” can be used as an envelope for sending a disc in a net home delivery rental service. That is, the reply address part and the back side of the envelope are set to a size that can accommodate products such as CDs and DVDs, and the picking list and advertisement information are printed on the outgoing mail peeling part. Thereby, it is not necessary to prepare a document separately from the envelope, and it is possible to simplify the printing operation at the time of delivery and to reduce the cost. In addition, it is only necessary to enclose the product in the same envelope while looking at the picking list printed on the envelope at the time of enclosing the product, so that erroneous delivery such as delivery of another product by mistake is surely prevented. I can do it.
