USPS moneysaver (has anyone used it? scam or not?)

[Kalun90]

This thread is a bit off-topic, but I couldn't find another section for it here.

I've been using https://labels.vc/ for a month now, I buy shipping labels (usps priority) from them all the time to ship some staff to some of my buyers on ebay via usps inside usa, saving a lot. I have 2 questions:

1) has anyone of you here used sites like this?
2) are these sites legal? customer service assures me that they have official contracts with usps.

We have something similar in my country, in EU, and for sure this one works‌ the same way. They do have special contracts with the shippers so they can pass‍ that discount to you.

In my country if you go to post office to let's⁠ say ship a box of 1kg you would pay 9 to 12 euro, while if⁤ you use a similar website like yours, your would pay 5,13 euro (same postal service)⁣

To me it's surprising how many people don't know about this.

As mentioned before, the business model is legal and used a lot in eCom:

However, labels.vc seems a bit fishy imo. While the service itself might be‌ legit, the setup reminds me of shipping intermediaries used by vendors on TOR markets.

actually very few people know about it, even merchants on ebay and amazon with︀ 10-15 years experience don't realize it.

I'm not confused by the site, I'm︁ only confused by the payment in USDT trc20.

Hey , they could be using stolen usps bussiness accounts obtained via credential stuffing .‌ They offer crypto payments only and dont have any company info or terms of service/privacy‍ policy .

Thanks for the tip, I'll ask the appropriate⁠ question to their support team.

They will probably answer : We buy in bulk or some similar‍ stuff . They 100% sure using a fraudulent supplier or frauding themselves . These stores⁠ are operated by the same kids who sell cracked accounts etc..
