I have 4 US 90c stamps which a friend gave me about a year ago. I was just wondering if they were still valid. They're a very nice design of a sunset with palm trees.

Ah, Ok. I just wanted to make sure they hadn't gone up or anything.
Thank you.

The stamps are still good--they don't expire.
BUT: 0.90 used to be the price of Airmail from the US to Europe but now it is 0.94 for a normal sized envelope (price going up in May) so you will need other stamps to make up the difference.
Hope that helps.

So.. I couldn't send all 4 of them then? Because at 90c, if I sent 3, that would more than cover the envelope, so if I used them all, in total it would cover the extra 4c for each stamp... or does it not work like that, lol?
I don't know very much about stamps and things.

It depends on what you are sending.
Three stamps at 90 is 2.70, so if the cost of the envelope is under that then you should be fine.
I can give better help is I know what you are sending.

I will be sending one A4 envelope with 1 A4 photograph and a one page letter.
I had 2 A4 photographs and two page letter sent back to me recently from the US and that cost $2.70, so I'd like to think mine would weigh less. :razz:

Yeah, the three 90 stamps will work for that. {thumb2}
