Plenty of people on here use a certain auction site and the £1.15 second class large letter is a very very popular rate.

Again? Only went up in march! 10p for a first class stamp in 1980. That's 41p today taking inflation into account

Royal Mail must be the only company actively trying to keep town centres afloat.

I have a eBay parcel to send this weekend so thought I'd better get my postage before the price goes up, but just realised it's literally impossible to achieve a Second Class large letter 100g price on the eBay app

If the weight is under 100g it only offers a letter, whatever the dimensions, and if the weight is 101g you get the higher price for a large letter. Pathetic.
