?•?About International SASEs??•?

Unread post by glitterywolf »

Alright, right now I'm working on sending out my letters to Ashley Greene and One Direction whose managements are both in London, UK. (Yes, I know that Ashley might have a US management address but some people have been saying it doesn't work..so I'm just using the UK one). Anyway, I had some questions about the SASEs.

Obviously, I put my address on it, but what about the postage?
On the envelope that goes from the US (where I am) to the UK I put regular $1.05 US Air Mail Stamps...but what do I put on the SASE?

I've looked everywhere around the Wisconsin area for IRCs (International Reply Coupons) and I can't find any...so if anyone could share what they do for SASEs, that would be wonderful(:

Thanks<3

You can buy IRCs online at the United States Postal Service website. They are $2.20 per IRC. The USPS charges you $1.25 to mail them to your house.

I also couldn't find any at the 2 post offices near my house, and the lady working there told me I could buy them online.

Look on the Autograph Sale/Exchange forum, many members sell/trade UK&USA stamps.

Or you could buy small amounts of foreign currency, $1 bills or 5EURO notes to include in your request.

It is risky, but it's an option.

I sent $10 for an autograph and it got there fine. I concelaed it well by putting it inside an envelope, then put that into a bigger envelope along with a letter and a photo, so it wasn't obvious.

Normally I buy US stamps through here for my requests, but the $10 was for a paid autograph :)

If I want to do european requests in the future, I plan on sending cash because the odd request is not worth the trouble of obtaining a few stamps for which ever country, now IRC's are no more in the UK.

FYI, they don't use the euro in the UK, the pound is their currency. If you decide to include currency, make sure you use the pound if you're sending a request to the UK {up}

Uh-huh, I am in the UK :D My location is under my avatar ;) So I use stamps I can buy in the shop.

I was replying to the two members above me, both in the UK looking to do US & Europe SASE'S.

Also recommended where to get stamps for the OP who wants to do UK SASE in the US

Alright, guys. Very confused... (: help. I have a slow and small blonde brain. So, should I maybe try calling the UK Royal Mail and just asking them to explain their postage? I think that sounds good, if the UK doesn't just IRCs anymore...
