Postage help price from newbie please

Unread post by Mfedor1231 »

Although I have been collecting autographs both in person and through the mail for close to 20 years, I am very new to this site and any and all assistance would be appreciated! I have never attempted to get 8X10 photos signed TTM and see a lot of successes on this site so I am thinking about trying. What is the best way to do this? I have a ton of 9X12 self-adhesive envelopes but I am very unsure on what the postage sending out and coming back to me is supposed to be. TIA for any assistance provided.

It depends on where you are located and where the person you are sending is.

In the USA to another address in the USA, I put two forever stamps on the 9x12 envelope.

If you are sending to another country you will need that countries stamps.

Thanks for the response. I have seen a few posts on here about people putting cardboard and something similar in the envelope to keep it from bending and wasn't sure how much that would affect the price. I also saw a post about putting 97 cent postage on the envelope and I wasn't sure how that was possible since the only thing I have seen similar to that at the post office is a $1 stamp.

.97 in postage was the price to Europe several YEARS ago but can't think why else that amount would have been used.

I don't send 8x10 internationally for the simple reason that it is expensive. Good luck with your requests.
