This idea is badass. Excellent usage of the usps shipping label API, I had begun work on this myself. Writing it in python though because I'm tired of seeing people hack PHP.

Do we get the same kind of postage discounts normally from shipping online and printing? I'm sure you get a cut, but I save almost a dollar by not doing it at the post office - will I still save money or is this just a method to use BTC to pay the same price at the post office?

Hi Bitcoiner2012,
You get the same savings as buying online. You also get access to USPS shipping services not available at the actual post office. For example, Parcel Select is an inexpensive ground service that's usually only available for businesses.

First class and media are my main questions. Those are what I use the most.

Great idea my friend. A recent website has shut down who did a similar thing in the US. He had a stamps.com account.

Apologies to anyone who was affected by our recent service interruption.
One of our providers had some unannounced downtime which affected our postage purchase flow.
We are now back up and running smoothly.
Thanks for your patience.
