As long as it was on just the SASE you'll be fine. you'll just have to pay the postage due when they deliver it to you. {up} I don't reccomend re-using stamps after you've used them once on the SASE even if they haven't been cancelled, as that's against post office policy and can result in HUGE fines that would have bought a ton of new stamps instead. :lol: Plus I work for the USPS, so naturally I can't even promote the idea of doing it either.

Depends on the postal worker,they can do a return to sender but i live in canada and got a few things that didnt have enough postage and they stamp it with a thing that says not enough postage but delivered anyways as a courtesy from canadapost.

What if there isn't enough postage on your envelope to your requested person? (not the SASE) if you have a return address, do they send it back to you or rip it up?

Thank you :-)

To Ryan: thanks! I realised I did not put enough stamps on my sase, and am sweating on a response. That is good news. Do you know if it is going from USA to Australia, they still use that same system?

Typically they get stamped with a "Postage Due:___" and they have to pay the remainder of the postage before they can have it. {up}

Hello! They see to have gotten rid of the collecting help section for some silly reason, so I will ask here. Do they simply chuck it in the bin? Do they sending it on with an "i.o.u"? Does it change between domestic and international? Thanks :)
