I'm sure it's a beneficial system to some people - I just have a feeling
that to many more it'll be less convenient than stamps (so I hope RM
aren't going to remove the ability to use the latter any time soon, or use
it to justify closure of more post offices!)

I think I'll use it occasionally, but for small packets rather than the
usual 'letters'. I am pretty geared up to check costs, so as long as it
fits in a post box I'll use it. For normal stuff I have a stock of
adhesive stamps.

Unfortunately, they closed two good sub post offices near here (one on a
large estate, with the next nearest to the estate being the one at the
bottom of the road). This has increased queues unacceptably. The main PO
for the town now means struggling into the Co-Op and parking is
dreadful. And it's really busy; I'm not sure the Co-Op are so happy now
as the changed access arrangements have resulted in an increase in
shoplifting!
