    200 items per week doesn't represent mass / bulk mailing in the eyes of An Post.

    For handiness sake a small franking machine is the way to go but be sure a weighing scale is incorporated or attached. A small scale up to 2kg weighing would cover most needs. You can also have the meter head hooked to the supplier through a modem for downloads as needed i.e. € top-ups and rate change uploads.

    You could do worse than to get in touch with An Post, they can advise on savings to be had on various types of posting.

    While a machine may beat stamps on convenience (and I'm not sure irishstamps.ie s great), what ultimately matters in any business is money.

    I understand there are only 3 suppliers of the machines in Ireland, and so they will be unnecessarily expensive, and you only be able to rent them. If you do contact An Post you might come back with the numbers :)
