Hi Catalina :D

Yes, it is possible to send money here if you want. You will have to remember to conceal it well (which I assume you do with your US requests) so it doesn't get lost or stolen.

The minimum amount you should enclose is a $5 note, as this is the smallest note available (do not send any coins in the mail). This will also be more than sufficient to cover postage costs (minimum $3.70 for a large 9x12 envelope).

I send posters if I can....they're worth like 3-4 times as much as a signed photo ;)

And what about the UK? I mean, I could send one Pound, but it's a bit weird putting a coin into the envelope, or is it? What do you think?
Hi Catalina,
These are the rates from UK to Europe (Ireland)
0.44p 20g
0.64p 40g
0.83p 60g
£1.02 80g
£1.21 100g
So I recommend that you follow these- I do not think that sending money is a good idea- explain in your letter the situation and hopefully you will get a reply anyway.
If you send money though these are the rates you need for the UK.

30-50$ ??? What are you sending ??? Isn't that too much? I don't know about you guys but it doesn't cost me that much for an autograph request.
It's not a good idea to send money in the mail. If you need stamps you can always trade or buy some thru the countries post office website.

Hey Catalina :D

You can obtain Australian currency at your nearest post office/bureau de change. Then send it in with your request. It should be fine to send as long as the envelope is a dark color (brown) to avoid theft. For example, if you placed money in a white envelope, if held up to a light, it can be visible.

For the UK, you could either purchase stamps off the Royal Mail's website or you could send an SAE with your request and state you were unable to locate any British stamps due to your location. Many people do this in letters and still receive responses.

So you think I can send Dollars to the UK?
I think the coins may weigh down the envelope & maybe cause a hole :|
