Half priced stamps work though, and nobody is going to prosecute grandma for counterfeiting postage stamps.

Yes they do. USPIS does not f around
Oddly they don't ever seem to prosecute the sites that profit from selling them. Funny, that.
It doesn't seem too weird to me: Selling someone fake stamps is a general act of fraud, between buyer and seller, and would be pursued by state/federal attorneys general.
The USPS becomes directly involved only later, when someone tries to defraud them by using a fake stamp.
Makes sense to me, the only place I've ever seen them personally advertised are overseas websites.
