Online stamps available
The days of popping down to the Post Office to send off the items you've sold on eBay may be coming to an end, as Royal Mail introduces a new online shopping facility for stamps.
You can choose from first, second and international delivery stamps and pay for them by credit card. You then print off your stamps, which come in the form of a unique barcode.
Royal Mail's Alex Batchelor said:
"The service is perfect for busy people, but it is also aimed at home workers who post small quantities of mail on a regular basis as well as people who sell goods via auction websites."
It hopes the 24-hour service will reduce queues in post offices.
