I think you can only buy barcoded ones now though. Do you know if these say 1st or 2nd class on them, or if the barcode can tell how much you paid and require extra payment when postage costs increase?

I do believe that special commemorative stamps aren't barcoded and work in the old way. This may be a workaround to circumvent the new system/price rises.
