I was just wondering because people I know said just send one but then some people on here have been saying 2 or 3.
Thank you for your help

Hi strawberrysmiles!
It depends on the size of the SAE.

Generally, if it's
smaller than 8x6", you can send only
1 IRC. Anything
bigger, then you would need
2-3 IRC's (3 IRC's for an 8x10" sized envelope). {thumb2}
Hope this helps!
Good luck!

Hi!
Yes, 1 IRC should cover the costs for a C5 envelopes (A5 sized). {thumb2} I always use just 1 IRC with my C5 SAE and it worked every time.
Good luck,

Hi!
I'm new to the Fanmail.biz website and also to autograph collecting. How many IRC's do you think that I should send an actor, from New Zealand to The United Kingdom.
(NZ = me UK = actor)
Thanks!

Hi Weird_Girl!
Welcome to Fanmail.biz! {clap}
IRC's are the same worldwide:
1 IRC = standard letter
2-3 IRC's = envelopes bigger than 8x6"
So it depends on what size SAE (Self Addressed Envelope) you're planning to send. {thumb2} You don't
have to send one, but it can increase your chance of getting a reply.

The best would be to search the feedback received for the person you're planning to send to and then decide what you want to send.
Good luck!!

In the past I would send 1-2 IRCs to USA/UK using a large envelope (the standard oversized ones), and always got by with that. Really I think it depends, like Zanne stated.

I have several 72p stamps. Would they work for SASEs from the UK to the US. I normally only send 1 or 2 sports cards and have them returned in a 4x6 envelope.
Thanks!!
