Other than the post office?

Are you sure about the $1 shipping fee? I tried the site earlier, planning to post about it here, but it crapped out on me and I gave up. I hadn't reached the stage of it showing me a total yet, which was where I planned to stop. But language earlier in the process made me think the $1 was a handling fee, and that in addition they would charge Priority Mail postage (which is minimum $3.90 IIRC).

Yup. I've done it before and I just tried walking through a purchase; at the point where it said "your credit card will be charged this amount" there was a flat $1 fee in addition to the stamp prices. The language is a little weird but I think this:

"All stamp orders are charged a $1.00 Handling Fee, regardless of the order amount. All other products are charged standard Priority Mail fees based on weight of the item and shipping address ZIP Code."

means that stamps are charged *only* for handling while anything else will actually pay postage.
