Number of IRC query

I'm sorry for asking so many questions but anyway - I get that for an 8x10 photograph it is best to send 2 IRCs which I have done in the past. But I am just wondering if I were to send a 6x4 photo would I only have to send 1 IRC or would it still be 2? Obviously with a 6x4 photo I would use a smaller envelope.

For a 6x4 you'll probably use a standard envelope, so you'd better send one IRC only. ;-)
Hope this Helps!

Thank you LeMon. That suits me fine just having to use one especially given the price has increased to £1.10

1 IRC would be fine.

Good Luck {up}

1 IRC is fine for something with a weight up to 20g. Anything more than that you should use 2.

Best of luck with your requests {thumb2}

Hi KatrinaLouise :D

I agree with everyone else. 1 IRC is enough. I have sent many requests with 6x4 photos in the past using 1 IRC.

1 IRC will cover a standard envelope regardless of what the current postal rate in a specific country will be. So don't be worried about if postal prices increase, as the IRC will always be exchanged for the value of the postage required to post the envelope.

Good luck!

Yep the price has increased to that amount in the UK. I was majorly shocked when they charged me that the other week.
