I've just been reading about them here - http://www.royalmail.com/portal/stamps/content1?catId=59600695&mediaId=59600698 Apparently they don't like publishing big hi-res pics in case unscrupulous people print them off and stick them on envelopes. :-? PS. I always thought those goatskin jerkins were pretty cool - looks like some ancient barbarian cavalry dress.
Those are cool. How much do they cost? I have some Purple Heart stamps that the USPS put out this year.
Cool. Can somebody please send me some? I'll pay for them. I have PayPal if that is accepted in the UK.
Hi If you click on my link to it above you'll see the the buy now link - they give you all the options but the presentation pack is, as Merlin said, £3.90 - plus postage to USA is £2.15 - I expect the Royal Mail will accept any major credit card direct without need for Paypal. PS. There's a prestige pack too.
stamps The Presentation Pack is in my opinion the best bet, if you get stuck I'll get you one and post it on.
Just a quick note on stamp collecting in case somebody hasn't thought about it - Why do stamp issuers encourage stamp collecting ? 'cause they sell more stamps - right ? ... well not quite - a postage stamp is payment for a service and has a cash value - unused stamps kept in collections are payment for services that will never be required or cash that will never be spent - it's similar with coin collecting - cunning buggers aren't they - I wish someone would pay me in advance for loads of jobs that I'll never have to do ...
Actually - I've been looking at jobs in local government - hmmm ... your point makes it look all the more attractive - doesn't actually fullfil very much of Maslow's Heirarchy Of Needs though ..... like I give a hoot.
