Postage Stamps

It's worth doing if:
a) you can sell them on without having to incur any extra fees;
b) you run a business, but don't use a franking service - 1st class franked mail is "only" going up to 44p;
c) you send a lot of letters or sell a lot of stuff on ebay;
d) you're going to play a very long game - and sell them once everyone elses stocks have dried up.
Nearly everyone else with a basic grasp of maths has probably had the same idea, and I'm sure there's been a lot of "panic" buying. So I'd doubt there'd be a lot of immediate demand.0 -
Great stuff. Thanks both.0

It made me realise that I use hardly any stamps now except at Christmas and I think that more and more people will send less seasonal cards than in the past.
I agree, especially at these prices - I think I'll give up sending Xmas cards at all!0 -
