How are vendors offering USPS Stamps for Cheap?
In BP there is lots of advertising for stamps @0.43

Is there a chance these are not legit?

Theyre legit. Have sold and used tens of thousands of these.

Not aasking what your source is just trying to understand it.... How are they discounting it that much?

From DDF, or other places?

Also, isn't it technically illegal, or am I nuts?

I don't understand what the question is. There were many 15% eBay sales over the past year.

Discounted eBay GCs stacked with 15% off sometimes gets you insane deals. I've bought at $0.24 already, but not in these quantities. Hundreds, maybe a few thousand Not 5k and 10k orders.

Yup no way to do that kind of volume with these eBay stackable deals.

They are always capped. I guess it’s technically possible, but if you are offering people 5k-10k at a time, it seems unlikely that’s what’s going on....

ETA Is that what you were using those EBay cards for?😜
