laziness, i assume. here's the steps i need to take in order to mail a letter: (a) buy a printer/set it up (b) buy paper/envelopes (c) visit the posto office with my sealed letter, so that they can tell me how much it will take to ship it to some destination abroad (because how the hell would i know)
for something i do, maybe, once a year, that's a hell of a lot of work
and, no, i don't own a printer. it's not useful in the general case. ditto television. my toaster oven rocks the house, though.
- ejs 19y agoThe same way I am, I mail so rarely that I usually dont have any stamps, and when I do they are usually the wrong amount (seems to change often). So I need to spend the time to find the correct price, maybe go buy more stamps then mail it. If I could just use a service like this I would probably do it. Although when I do have to mail things I usually have to include things so its a manual process anyway. Maybe this is tailored to use for complain letters or threats that people don't want coming from their geographically location...?
