    They've been doing it for ages now, I looked into it in the past but it didn't seem worth it to me, you pay the same price as you would just buying the stamps but you also have to pay for ink and paper and sellotape to hold it on. If you're selling things as part of a business then a stamp held on with a bit of sellotape is not going to look very professional either.

    Why have you put the link in a code box btw? It's not clickable like that.

    But it would look ok if you print it direct on to the envelope or a sticky label.
    However it is a bit pointless as it does cost more as your using your own stuff regardless.

    I already print my addresses onto my envelopes and not had a problem with water, ink costs are negligible.

    I'ved used their smartstamp software once when they were doing a special 3 month period at £5 p/m and it was pretty nifty - saved a lot of time going into town to the post office.
