These $25.00 Express Mail, stamps, does anyone use them, or is this just a USPS gimmick to get money out of collectors? And do we need a new Express Mail design every year?
And the minimum quantity you can buy from Philatelic Fulfillment is 4. So you have to spend over $100 to get these things.

I have never used an express mail stamp and doubt most sold ever have seen actual usage. The only time I paid more than $15 is when I sent packages to Canada and that was not often enough to invest in $100 of stamps.
Yes, issuing the stamp seems more like a money grab.

I get them every so often on my mailings from the APS Stamp Store! I'd never buy them as a collector though, just too much for a little piece of paper - even used!
