Buying return postage for out of country mail??

[Katie23]

So I know about IRCs and stuff but today when I went to my post office to send a letter to Canada (I've never sent one to Canada before) my postal guy got all mean and told me there was no way for them to put postage on the SASE for it to be returned to me from Canada. I even asked him about buying it offline and he kept going "Nope, can't do that. Nope, can't do that," over and over.

So my question is: How or where can I get stamps so the person can send my autograph in the envelope BACK to me from Canada????

(I skimmed a few of the other topics about stamps and such on here but couldn't find any that helped. If there is one you know of, you can just direct me there instead of retyping the answer here.)

You need IRCs (if he gets aggresive again, ask to speak to his manager). They dont actually go ON the SASE, if that's what the guy's issue is. You send them with the letter and your intended recipient swaps them at their post office for stamps.

Or you can try and Autograph Sale/Exchange section of the forum and see if someone is selling Canadian stamps.

You can order stamps directly from the Canadian post office. Just click the link www.canadapost.ca/shop and sign up with a new account and use a credit card to place an order for however many stamps you want. The shipping costs are pretty high so you may want to plan ahead and buy more than you need, but it is a pretty fast and efficient system.
