America? IRC's? etc etc

[spellbound]

Heya i have been thinking about sending a few letters to some american stars as the replys would generally be worth a lot more.
Couple of questions...
Should I bother with IRC's ? They are expensive but obviously if they drastically increase my chances i will get some.
What sort of success rate would i be looking at? Has anyone here sent overseas for a charity auction? IF so what sort of a response did you get?


Thanks as always for all your help everyone {thumb2}

I'm from the US and I always use two First Class US stamps on my SASEs. Which is about .81cents US.
I dont know how much IRCs cost, but it may be cheaper to buy some US stamps.

Hope that helps,
Maybe another user has some more input!

Does anyone know how many american stamps you need to send to england? How i would get them and how much they would cost? I really have absolutely no idea!

the AirMail stamps in the US are 90 Cents.

The average stamp in the US is 41 cents.

You can purchase stamps from http://www.usps.com

And to get to England, I either put on 1 90cent stamp or 3 41 cent stamps.

(I send to England a lot, as I have family there)
