Help with forever stamps

[19Gadell92]

Hi everyone!
I have a question: How does the forever stamp work? Can I use it on my SAE if I send a letter to the U.K or Australia? Will I get a reply, or do I have to buy U.K stamps in order to get my SAE back from the U.K, and australian stamps to get my SAE back from Australia?
I'm new to this whole thing about stamps from other countries and how they work.. I've tried to buy some from the internet, but it doesn't work.

Thanks in advance,

As far as I know you will always have to buy stamps, for your SASE, from the country you are sending to!

So for example when you are sending from Sweden to the UK you will need:
1.) stamps from Sweden for your envelope to the UK,
2.) stamps from UK for your SASE.

You can also use IRCs (= International Reply Coupon) instead of stamps from the UK...

Many regards,

You have to buy UK stamps if your sending it back from the UK to another country

and australian stamps to get my SAE back from Australia?
Yes you have to buy the stamps they use in Australia so it can be sent back to you

Forever stamps just work in the US.

For each different country, you need to get their stamps or use IRCs.

Hope this helped.

Yep as has been said, the Forever stamp is only valid for America, you'll need stamps from the UK or Australia for an SASE from there. The exchange forum has lots of threads offering to trade/sell stamps from different countries.

Hope you can find some and good luck with your requests!
