Thanks for all your help!!!

Okay. Well, I found this... I think they can be used for US, but I have no clue.

But, I go to the US enough that I just buy $20-$30 in US stamps while I'm there and I use those for celebs that I really like that only reply SASE. Otherwise I just use SAE. I've never had to use IRC.

Hello fellow Canadian:
Welcome to fanmail! There are a couple things you could do:
1.) As Osiris suggests, find another person looking for Canadian stamps and trade.
2.) If you or someone you know goes to the states, pick up a whole bunch of stamps.
3.) Use Canadian stamps ( I usually use $1.00 stamp)
4.) Risk it and just include a SAE and hope they supply the stamp - which some do.
5.) Buy an IRC.

Hope this helps. If you have any other questions please feel free to ask or send me a PM.

Good luck!

According to http://www.canadapost.ca/cpo/mc/busines ... oz/irc.jsf they're $4 each. You can exchange stamps with other users here, that has proven to be cost effective alot of the time. Try the Autographs for Sale or Exchange section

I am getting ready to send some requests out...do you send IRCs for US actors/actresses??? What do you do? I was told by someone that IRCs cost 5.00 each, and they recommend sending 2????? that could get very costly!!!!

any help would be greatly appreciated!!
