or you could by when low and sell it for cheaper than actual cost

hey look, im number 42.
im the answer to life the universe and everything

 

I guess as long as they allow that.
I'm #43.

 

43 has no signifigant meaning unless you find a roll of '43 pennies at face
42 on the other hand, according to the best book series ever, hitchhikers guide to the galaxy, is the answer to life the universe and evrything

 

Except that it did at one point in the last year or two -- first-class postage rates dropped by a couple of cents, probably because the last increase had some time limit built in. It's not the usual thing, though.

And CoinTalk policy prevents me from commenting on 45.

 

Interesting. I never thought any place like that lowered prices (except for discounts, sales, and promotions). It's always raising prices to account for inflation.

 

Yep, https://www.stampexchange.com - no idea how active that is, as I am not interested in philately. When it comes to "mixed" products (numiscover, PNC ...), those can and should of course be discussed here. But stamps, meh.

Yes it did, in 1851

From 5 cents to 3.

And JeffB is right there was a short term drop a couple years ago.
