Before you forgo ordering a stamp, check with your state board. In Wyoming, your PE registration is not complete until you fill out a form with your stamp on it to be approved. I imagine this is the case in most states if not all states. It is frustrating to bust a$$ to get it and then not use it, but it happens. Had mine for about 2 years and have yet to use it. Got the promotion and raise at work, but they still choose to not use it.............but I do work for the government which is notorious for not fully utilizing it's resources. Every now and then I stamp a yellow post it and stick it up on my desk somewhere just to remind myself I actually am a P.E.its too expensive to order them....plus no need for ordering it as of now.
