Top investment opportunity?

[BlasterBates]

Why would anyone buy a "secondhand stamp" on E-bay when they can pop into the Post-Office?

Are you going stand outside the Post-Office day after day trying to sell several grands worth of stamps?

Might not people be a bit wary about them being forgeries?


This idea sounds a bit crackers really.

That's an optimistic view of the availability of post offices.

It's not so much an investment as a savings plan. Assuming that at some stage you will use the stamps (or someone will), you can get 8% discount from some shops already, plus whatever saving you make over the cost of stamps rising.

I don't think I'd buy a grand so so, but if you have the money, where else are you going to get 8% this year on a small amount?
