Stamps.com teams with Adobe

Stamps.com has announced a deal with Adobe Systems to help consumers make PhotoStamps with Adobe Photoshop products. PhotoStamps are legal U.S. postage that use images such as personal photos and company logos. A PhotoStamp option will be included in Adobe Photoshop Album Starter Edition for Windows, Photoshop Elements 3.0 for Windows, and Photoshop Elements 4.0 and Photoshop CS2 for both Windows and Mac. The Web-enabled Photoshop feature will let users see PhotoStamps Web pages from within the application.

Stamps.com is a licensed vendor of the U.S. Postal Service. PhotoStamps are available in a wide range of postage value denominations but do cost more than Postal Service-issued stamps. A 20-stamp sheet of 39 cent stamps is $17.99, though bulk orders bring down the price.

What a rip-off...

Nearly $0.80 for sending a single letter with some dumb photo or logo on it. Talk about a rip-off and waste of marketing money.

For each its own

Although I agree with you, there are, however, people who love to see pictures of themselves and/or their pets on anything and everything possible. And, they're willing to pay for it.

Call it madness, naivete, or plain dumb expense. But, just like you have people who are willing to pay $3 million dollars to get flown up high enough to be considered "in space."

Millions of people think that the iPod is an overpriced and hyped mp3 player, while others love it and don't mind the price.

Tomatoe, Tomato ...
C'est la Vie.

STAMPS.COM

Worst rip off I have ever seen. They suck you in with a free trial package sent to your home and somewhere in the signing up process you are charged $15.99 monthly for NOTHING. So along with the $15.99 monthly fee you pay for the paper to print the stamps on from YOUR printer plus you are chrged the normal stamp fees on top of all this ...WHAT A DEAL

Beware. Its a rip off. They get you into trial period and than charge you without letting you know.
