Hello Marokee:

I am also from canada. I have been collecting autographs for over 5 years. I have never purchased US stamps or IRC. What I do is use a Canadian US stamp. I believe its .96 right now. I just attach as many as I think I will need on my SASE and its always come back to me from the states. Doing it this way saves me probably around $5.00 because when I first looked into IRC they were going to charge me $7.00 I think for one. So i tried it this way and it works and Ive done it ever since. It may help that on my SASE I always put my address on the front and back to be sure it comes back. Hope this helps. On Ebay you may be able to purchase stamps too.
Good luck! {thumb2}

Do these Canadian US stamps also work for Europe? Because Canada Post still sells to foreign countries, USPS does not anymore.

Hi Dani

I am not sure if the International stamps work or not. I've actually never sent any autograph requests internationally. I plan on sending a request to Kiera Knightley and I will let you know if I get a response.

I've never heard of Canadian post offices selling US stamps. Then again I've never tried.
And Autographgirlygirl, I'm surprised to hear you put the Canadian US stamps on your SASE's as they are not legit. They are merely for Canada to the USA, but I'm surprised they come back. Re: IRCs it would be $7.00 for two. They are $3.50 each (which is ridiculous). And you are able to purchase USA stamps from USPS and they ship Canada if you ever needed to (not sure about elsewhere in the world). I have a friend who has. {up}
