The Transnistrian post acted again of digital postage face
values as the rigid opponent. The mailers so accustomed to work with alphabetic
face values which it is at present already published 18 and from which they
easily put a mosaic of the necessary post tariffs that outright opposed
emergence of "figure". The main argument against digital face values
is that since the beginning of the next year in Transnistria is planned the traditional
tariff increase. In this regard the post officials are afraid of the large
remains in a warehouse of unrealized stamps. However, it will be already
another story altogether.
