If a stamp have a barcode, why not just let people who have printers at home to print it on the envelope directly? This eliminates the need to buy physical stamp, thus the probability of buying counterfeit stamps.

    This is wqhat Royal Mail does.annd Indeed it’s slightly cheaper to login to their website, purchase and print postage and then drop it at the Post Office than it is to buy thhe Stamps at the Post Office.

      Can I drop it in post box instead? There is a post box nearby, not Post Office. Otherwise I will need to arrange a collection.

        Yeah i think so. Ive done that plenty of times. I find it weird that Royal Mail will offer to collect my single second class letter by default. How does that work without a letterbox? Do i have to stay in all day waiting for the Postman?

          You can wait for the postman to collect your mail, or leave it at “secure location” for the postman to pickup.

            Ah yes the infamous secure location - In the (empty) plant pot, under the car, in the wheelie bin (on bin day) - These are some of my favourite ‘secure locations’ our local delivery drivers have identified. - I prefer the post box on my walk.
