Perhaps you purchased too many stamps and no longer have use for them. Or you may have bought too many stamps for a project. How can postage stamps be returned if you don’t need them anymore?
Returning Stamps To The Post Office
Unfortunately the United States Post Office does not accept returns. However, that doesn’t mean that you’re stuck with them forever. You can get cash back for your stamps if you return them to a postage buying service like Return My Stamps.
Returning Stamps To A Postage Buying Service
We will accept any amount of postage stamps as long as they haven’t been used yet. The process is pretty simple. Just print out the Packing Slip off our website, fill it out, and ship it to them with your stamps.
Next, you’ll receive an email from them within a week or two letting you know how much we will pay for your stamps. You can either accept or decline their offer. It’s that easy.
How Much Will You Get Back
It’s important to understand that you won’t get back the full face value of your postage stamps, no matter who you sell them to. After all, why would someone pay full price for your stamps when they can get them at the Post Office, likely in better condition, or at least with an official receipt to write off their purchase as an expense?
Like with most goods, aftermarket options are always sold for less than the manufacturer’s price. How much you get for your stamps will depend on what type of stamps they are. Condition will also play a major roll in their resale value.
For example, Forever stamps will fetch more value because they are always worth whatever the First-Class letter rate is, even if it goes up. When it comes to condition, the closer to new condition they are, the more they will pay. Complete sheets or rolls of stamps will bring a higher offer compared to single stamps or partial books and rolls.
