No, the price of stamps are different and the price of the parcel itself will be different, so it's unlikely you'd use the same number. I never use 1st class stamps myself, seeing as replies often take months to come back it hardly seems worth paying the exes money just so it would arrive a day quicker![/quote]
For the sake of 9p, I tend to do it just for the hell of it lol.

If you're 15, you can easily go get a paperround, at 15 £6 shouldn't be a trouble.

I'm not sure how she's come up with £3... none of the price tables list £3 as an option

Obviously I dont know the measurements of the parcel (obviously the one there will be bigger than the one coming back, remember that) so I can't predict it myself.

You could always use 2nd class stamps?

EDIT - Just remembered you said in your other topic you're 15. You could get a job at 15. Or do chores around the house for extra money, or wash cars for your neighbours or... the list goes on. Be creative :)

650 grams, I went to the post office and the women did a inspection and came to £3 on the dot, guess she could of been a bit bent, she looked like the sort of woman who would give wrong amounts of money to elderly ladies and their pension.

£3.28 sounds about right to me, a book is quite a heavy object!

How old are you? You could get a part time job if you're worried about costs.

Just found out it'll be 8 First class stamps, which is absolutely ridiculous, as I'd have to include a SASE which is another 8, and 16 stamps at 41p each is £6.56.

6.56 is allot of money to me, I only get £5 a week, I like to do other things.

The weight is important as well as the dimensions, and of the entire package, not the book itself.

I've email a celebrity's organisation, asking if I send a autobiography, would it get signed, they said yes along as you send an SASE.
How much postage would I have to put on it?
I'm in the UK...

It's dimensions:

Height :9 1/2 inches
Width : 6 1/3 inches
Depth : 1 inch

I have allot of stamps so It don't matter.
I just don't want to lose the book because of my error in shipping!

Thanks!
