Why was a friend charged 5 pence per stamp extra when buying first class postage stamps recently?
Some time in the 1960’s there was a big hoo-hah about price fixing and the rules were changed allowing shops to basically charge whatever they wanted for all but a handful of items. One of those items happens to be postage stamps. Here’s the Royal Mail take on the matter: “.. retailers are not permitted to charge more than the face value of a postage stamp. Retailers are bound by a set of Terms & Conditions when they sell any of our products. We take very seriously any reports of retailers who overcharge for stamps (ie for more than their face value). Customers can complain in writing to: Denise Sivills Royal Mail Retail Manager 21 South Gyle Crescent Edinburgh EH12 9PA” I suggest that your friend puts pen to paper and uses up one of those overpriced stamps. In future he might consider missing out the middle man altogether and buying online ht
