I have had about 2 letters to post each week for months -used to have 10 or 11 a week. Doing a misdelivery survery this week and next. Just had 1 letter to post next week then in came another with a book of stamps as an extra. I think I have the world record collection of books of first class stamps. My Christmas cards and my mums will be going first class for the next few years :rotfl:Any suggestions on what to do with the stamps?

I sell mine on ebay, sold some large letter stamps the other week and they sold for more than the face value. I know you get fees off, but i have no use for them whatsoever, just keep a book of 12 for birthday cards.0

No, I've been leaving the money on the letter.0 -
I tried to cash in my stamps a few months ago, and got blank stares from the Post Office. I'm not sure they know what it means to "cash in a stamp".
Pity, because I've got a ridiculous collection too
If you read back through the thread, there was information on how to do this some time back. As I remember you need a special form & the PO take 15% off the face value.
The other option is to sell on e-bay or give them to a charity.0 -

I have a posting on Saturday which says 'after 1pm but before final collection' but final collection on Saturday is 11.45am. Does anyone know whether I should post it after 1pm or before 11.45am?0

If I were you I would post it before 11.45am as the important thing is for the item to go. It's not as important to stick to the times.The art is not in making money,but in keeping it!!!0 -

I had one of these today as well, online it said "after 1pm..." but the paper schedule just said "before final collection" I posted it this morning and logged the time as it seems a bit daft to me for it to sit in the postbox for the rest of the weekend. I guess they could be trying to test the very first Monday collection but if they are they won't get much help from me as I always post before final collection in these circumstances
SPCome on people, it's not difficult: lose means to be unable to find, loose means not being fixed in place. So if you have a hole in your pocket you might lose your loose change.0
