Vending machine has been incorrectly programmed. Option 604 is giving out $11 worth of stamps for $2.50!

There are PLENTY of stamps in this machine. The foyer is open 24/7 so come on down and say hi to me in the little red car (I wanna see some real life OzB drama for entertainment in my free time)

Update the following day: https://youtu.be/Al6hT11k1dE

Tl;dr - they switched off the vending machine after re-stocking it with the correct product, lol. Possibly a nationwide memo from head office to switch these things off, lol

    I guess stamps are an item that can't be re-sold …. I believe news agencies previously to stock stamps (out of convenience to customers and to promote store traffic)… but with no margin your PO is your only choice.

    Officeworks…forget it.

    • [Deactivated] on 01/02/2022 - 01:23

      stamp collecting used to be quite popular but most of them aren't worth anything much to collectors these days. even old stamps are still usable though, so it's possible to pick them up on ebay in bulk at a discount to face value.
