    How does it work? Do you weigh it on your bathroom scales and then pay online for a computer generated stamp of sorts?

    You are asked the weight and size like other couriers do .

    https://send.royalmail.com/send/your...=&weightUnit=G and print the label.

    You can pay via payplal .

    Never have a clue what time or postman arrives, unless they were to give a time for pick up it's useless unless you want to wait in most of the day.

    The same way you can already pay on line for items you take to the PO

    Why wait in when you can go to the post office. My postmaster is the best hes a watch, knife and gun nut., he always gives me a discount with parcel force (15%), turns the other way when I'm a bit over on weight and always has a natter about what I'm posting. I fix his watches for free to return the favour.
