USPS stamps

[onethatcares]

are not being sold for Americas' 250th birthday. I just bought a few and they're white stickers with a querly box and the words
"forever stamps"

Another thing he touches turns to shit.

1. Why should Republicans celebrate our founding documents. They don't believe in them.

[CurtEastPoint]

2. What is a querly box?

6. Maybe a coil of stamps.

I think they still sell those. If you want the 250th commemorative stamps you probably have to ask for them.

3. There have been 6 250th releases so far

Might need to get online. I'm sure collectors buy them up.

The U.S. Postal Service (USPS) is marking the 250th anniversary of the USA and the Postal Service (1775–2025) with several major stamp releases in 2025 and 2026

9. Thanks for pointing that out

I was finding it difficult to believe that there were NO 250th anniversary stamps available.

4. You're wrong.

You bought the generic stamps from the machine. Got stand in line and get whatever you want.

But you might have noticed that there's nothing to celebrate. America is over.

5. thanx for the correction

in order: a qwerty box is what you point your phone at when buying on line i think. If I'm mistaken plerase point out where. Thanks
I did not get the stamps from a machine but from the Postal clerk who seemed to be standing behind a counter dispensing said stamps.

I just checked the USPS website and there is a stamp there from 2025, the flag unfurling in a breeze. No other type or style visiblel.
perhaps you can point me in the right direction to find them. Thank you

Billions of stamps are made annually, there is no collectibe value to them unless they are off centere or misprintred in some manner.

Thanks

8. Nonsense. For some reason, you are telling untruths

in this thread. If you are at the post office and ask to buy commemorative 250th anniversary stamps, the clerk will show you what is available at aht a post office. You can choose the ones you want and buy them. You keep insisting they don't have them.

What city and which post office did you visit? Was it a USPS post office or some desk in a grocery store?

Please do not spread nonsense on DU.

Those stamps are available in every damned post office in the United States of America and from the USPS web site to order for delivery to you home.

Just stop doing this stuff or I might get angry about it.

12. you're thinking of a QR code

[MineralMan]

7. Sorry, but that's just nonsense.

Walk into the post office, step up to the counter and say, Can I see the commemorative stamps? there are dozens of the 350th anniversary designs and you can buy as many of them as you want.

you're leaving something out of your post. What is it and why, I do not know. But you are giving incorrect information for some reason. It is simply not true.

Please explain yourself.

10. I apologize for not

asking for commemorative stamps. I was purchasing "stamps" regular old "Stamps"..not commemoratives. I'll keep that in mind.

What could I leave out of my post and why would i do something like that?

[MineralMan]

11. You could leave out

Any statement that said they weren't selling any 250th anniversary stamps. You claimed they weren't. You assumed they weren't. You decided the weren't. They were. They are. You didn't ask. You didn't look. There are posters on the wall showing them.

You said something like, "I want some stamps." Then you came here and said things that weren't true.

Think first. Then post.

13. Note also that your OP refers to a "querly box",

which some here have rightfully questioned. Later you state you mentioned "qwerty box", but that was not true in the OP.

I just bought a few and they're white stickers with a querly box and the words
"forever stamps"

in order: a qwerty box is what you point your phone at when buying on line i think. If I'm mistaken plerase point out where. Thanks

I'll presume you mean a QR box.
"Qwerty" refers to the order of keys on the top alphabetic line of a normal keyboard, and has nothing to do with a box where one would point a phone. It defines the type of keyboard being used: Qwerty vs. Alphabetic.

Thus, reasons for some confusion here.

14. note to self

strive for perfection.

[Totally Tunsie]

15. At the very least, strive for clarity.

P.S. You did say:

If I'm mistaken plerase point out where.

Thus, i fulfilled your request.
