I ordered some DC 'sticker's from USPS.com

[Q]

Title says it, I ordered some Delivery Confirmation stickers from them, but how do I use them? Do I have to pay something to use them or what?

Thanks

You have to use it at the retail PO

They will scan it and charge 60 cents.

You got them just because you like stickers.

Well 60 cents better than a buck I guess (When I was at the PO before the stickers they charged me a dollar)

If you use the USPS's online Click-n-Ship service, you can print labels with free DC.

You got ripped if they charged you $1. Should be .60 for Priority and .50 for Parcel (I do believe).

I am trying to get my dad to do this as he does not have a computer and keeps calling me to check and see if a package he sent has arrived. I said "Dad get a cheap fax machine and I'll fax you the labels direct from my computer and save you money. Also I can call you when the package gets there so you don't have to read me the 16 digit DC number of every package you send."

So he calls Qwest and they tell him he needs a second line for a FAX. I said no dad just plug the line into the fax and a line from your fax out to the answerning machine. Then set the fax to TAD, but he still thinks he needs a second phone line because Qwest told him.

It is going to be a long winter.

I was/am just confused b/c on the back it doesn't say anything bout going to PO to use them.

So I just stick it on the package, take it to a PO, and they will scan it and add $.60?

Yes... its a rip off because you can create prepaid labels. That give you free DC.

All other services charges 14 cents (well for paypal's pitney bowes)
