No IRCs

[AutographWanter]

Apparently all of the post offices by my house don't sell IRCs anymore... So could I put $2 in the envelope even though they really won't be able to use the money?

Refer to the Autographs For Sale/Exchange forum, chances are you will find a member selling IRC's. If not, ask for IRC's in the Wanted subforum. Sending currency a celebrity can't use is pointless.

Good luck!

Thanks! I was hoping I could stick money in my envelope because I wanted to mail it out today, but I guess I'll go and search in the exchange forum.

Many U.S. Amateurs have contacted me because IRCs are "not available at their local Post Offices." This is incorrect. If you receive such a response, please direct the postal clerk to Section 380 of the International Mail Manual. As of this writing, the current edition is Issue 35, updated February 26, 2009. Sub-section 381.2 clearly states, "Reply coupons may be requisitioned by Post Office facilities in the same manner as postage stamps. The coupons should be stocked at Post Office facilities that have a demand for them." In other words, if they don't have them, ask them to order some. Since it is a normal, requisitioned supply, you should NOT be expected or required to pay in advance,

Simply speaking don't take no for an answer and make them do their job.
