8 x First Class 1st Class Large Letter Postage Stamps Royal Mail Post Office

These are amazing. First you write a letter, then you put it into an intricately folded piece of paper called an envelope. Next you write out the name and address of the person you want to send it to. Finally you put these queen stickers in the corner and put the whole thing in a red box. Wait a day or so and your letter will magically travel to the person you sent it to. Amazing!

Not really much you can say about a stamp really

Previously, I didn't realise I could purchase postage stamps in this way. During this lockdown, purchasing in this way has proved a boon to us older people who are frightened to go out. Thank you for this service which I shall continue to use.

Poor value for money. I assumed bulk buying stamps on Amazon would save money. I was completely wrong. First class large letter stamps are £1.15 each. These were £13.49 for 8.. working out at £1.69 per stamp,..or 46% more expensive. What a rip-off!

Write a letter, then fold it up into itself to make its own envelope (or even letter-lock it), which saves buying envelopes and storing them and not having the right size. (An envelope's a good idea for a greeting card - easy to make or a bought card comes with one.) Put one of these self-adhesive stamps on it, address it and post it - easy peasy - long gone are the days you had to lick the stamp. If you already know it requires a Large Letter stamp by using your own pricing-in-proportion 'ruler' and weighing scales, it avoids queuing at a post office. A few days later your recipient will read the letter then email/text and ask why you didn't too.Despite the high mark-up it's very useful to receive stamps by mail-order if you can't easily get to a post office due to, say, distance or (like me) injury, and I'd buy more if needed. The stamps came well-packaged, inside cellophane and sturdy Amazon cardboard. As only a category and no price appears on stamps it doesn't matter when the price goes up, therefore you can lay in a stock against future need.

Used one of these stamps to send my mum a birthday card, she had to collect her card from he post office and pay for the postage! The post office told her, they could not read the stamp and the sender should be notified. Not happy.

Overpriced, just as easy to purchase direct from Royal Mail on line at cost price

The stamps came quickly and the price is good for the amount you get.The stickiness isnt that great on them as they peel off from the side once put on
