Yeah, I was just gonna say.. there are SO many different kinds of stamps..maybe whoever sorting them doesn't realize they're stamps from another country? See, our return stamps actually say 'Canada' on them, so they'd never get through. But if the stamps don't say the country name and there is just an image, maybe they think they're US stamps, who knows...
i think you are right Velvetgold!!! The special issue stamps are more picture/ artwork orientated, so the price of the postage probably wont shout out at you, im guessing postal workers arent always as obervant! saying that, it is a good idea Buffysatine, and i will try it again - saying that im on a total dry spell of autographs - i will have to start signing my own autograph soon and posting it to myself!! LOL
I hear you brother!

I have used UK stamps when sending return postage to another country, and it got through. I only had a few IRC's, and was wanting to write to Kylie on her Australian tour - i sent out two requests - the first one i put UK picture stamps (anyone in the UK will know that we get issue stamps now and again), and that success came back from Australia to the UK no problems. Ironically the second request i sent, i attached 3 IRC's to it and ive never heard back!!! i guess it depends on the postal system if they recognise stamps??

I don't think anyone is actually attacking you. It's just what you've claim to have done defies fact and logic, so of course people are skeptical.

Either way, I wouldn't recommend anyone else trying this.

My returns come back with only my stamps on them & no other form of payment so I have no idea what you mean by 'my stamps aren't paying the postage'??

I had no idea that by saying I do this & have done it since 1983 it would cause such a huge upset?!?!? It's what I do & have always done. It works for me & always has. Be skeptical, I really do not care. Was only trying to help out another Aussie. I will not come back to this thread to have people have a go at me. Have more pressing issues in my life. This is just one of the hobbies I have had since I was a kid & enjoy & have alot of experience with.

Won't try & help someone out again in future after this.

Someone from my own country asked for advice & I told them what i have always done & that it has always worked for me. Kimmylee says people have told her that & she does not believe them so I guess that makes me a liar & as if the postal service would ever go out of business in any country.

I do what I have done since 83 and that's that. I really do not appreciate being questioned & my being a liar alluded to when I was just answering someone's question.

Well when people know for a fact that you CAN'T do what you've been doing all these years, it's normal that people are a little skeptical. Not of YOU per se, but of trying what you've been doing at the risk of it not working for them. I personally have never heard of "international postage" but if its been working for you, maybe it IS allowed. Maybe it's an unwritten rule of sorts, because I've asked post offices over the years that tell you you can't use stamps from your own country as return postage from another country. Right now I'm just really confused! Post offices say you can't do what you've been doing... and yes, the postal service can lose lots of money if any international stamps work in any country. I'm not saying what you're doing is wrong, I'm just saying, you're really lucky it's worked for you all this time. I personally would be afraid of trying it. Most of the time when I've sent within Canada and the celeb has gone back to the US, they've removed my postage and put postage from their own country to send back to me. I personally am not calling you a liar, I'm just shocked it's worked for you all this time!

By the way, I'm a BIG fan of your site!
