Customs and Border Protection agents in Chicago seized nearly 162,000 counterfeit U.S. Forever stamps this past week which the agency said were shipped from China.

U.S. stamps are heading for their sixth price hike since 2021. In raw numbers, only four countries in a recent study of 31 developed nations had cheaper stamps than the U.S.

The stamps honor the Snake Island soldiers who answered a Russian calls to surrender with "Russian warship, go f*** yourself!" Ukraine's postal service had to limit purchases to six stamps apiece.

The most valuable stamp in the world, the British Guiana One-Cent Black on Magenta, failed to set yet another world record at auction.
