International Reply Coupons work out at exactly 96p each as I bought some today!

but letters do vary depending on if you want to send photo's etc...
a basic letter (no sae but not recomended) would be about 90p
if you want to send a cardboard back envelope with photo's you are looking at around £2
heavy duty cardboard packing pushes it up to £3
and any personal items would be very expensive

I sent a photo letter and comic to Stan Lee and it came to £5.40!- with return postage you really have to want it for £11!
dont let this put you off though its an amazing feeling when you get your first auto!

hope this helps

Welcome to the forum Theo :)

The coupons you may have heard of is IRCs. (International Reply Coupons) Which yes, are available at your post office
These coupons will enable the celebrity to exchange them for the return postage.
I'm not sure exactly how much they cost, but 2-3 should be enough for each letter

Good Luck!
Happy Collecting :mrgreen:

How much is it nowadays? (roughly)

And what are the coupons I need to purchase to compensate the return mailage costs? Are these from the Post Office?

Bascially, how much will it cost me to send 4 requests to the US including the coupons etc . . .!!! ;-)

Sorry for my ignorance. I'm very new to this hobby!

Thanks for your help -x-
