Hello ,

I have moved your topic to the correct forum. {thumb2}

I'll just copy what annie985 wrote in another topic because I think it tells everything:

annie985 wrote:U.S. Forever stamps do not have a value on them because they change when the U.S. stamp prices go up and are good "forever" with whatever the current postage price is.

Hope it helps ;)

but how do you use them? just put it on the envelope?

You use them like normal stamps.

The only difference between them and normal stamps is that their value will change if the postage price goes up, for normal stamps you will have to buy stamps to cover the difference.

Hope this helped. Let me know if you have more questions. {thumb2}

There are currentely 44cent american stamps.

A Forever stamp is good for 1st class postage in the US.

Example:
Current postage rates in the US is 44cents. So you buy a pack of 20 forever stamps for 44 cents each. You use 10 of them.

Then postage rates in the US go up to 46 cents. Because you've purchased the Forever Stamps your other 10 stamps automatically become worth 46 cents, even though you've paid 44 cents for them - hence they're good "Forever"

So you have to put 10 of them on the envelope?

no

no, they can only be used to send from the US, you would need UK stamps to send from the UK, but you can use them on your SASE(since it would be sent from the us back to you)
