In some feedbacks somebody received a 8x10 autographed picture. Are these photos 8x10 cm? Or inches? How many cm are 1 inch? Well, I live in Germany and there we don't use inches or something like that. I always send an 11cm x 16cm envelope, because it's cheaper and I wanna be sure that the photo fits in.
In february I'll go to London and I want to buy some stamps for SASEs. How much postage is it for a standard letter from the UK to Germany? And how much postage is it for a national standard letter from somewhere in the UK to somewhere in the UK? Which is the maximum weight and size for a standard letter?
Sorry for so many questions.
Hope you can help me!

Hi Ruslana
How many cm are 1 inch?
1 inch = 2.54 cm
This makes an 8x10 photo about 20x25 cm.
I'm not 100% sure about postage costs in the UK, so I'll leave that question up to someone else
All the best with your collecting

Hi Ruslana
Postage within the UK is 21p for second class (2-7 days), or 30p for first class (next day to 98% of mainland addresses).
Postage to anywhere in the EU from the UK is
10g £0.42
20g £0.42
30g £0.42
40g £0.60
60g £0.78
Hope this helps, but if you need any more UK / overseas postal prices check out the Royal Mail website:

Hope this helps!

Has the size of an envelope anything to do with the postage in Britain?
Can somebody tell me the postage of the USA?
Thanks in advance

I don't think the size of the envelope relates to the amount of postage required in the UK, only the weight of the envelope.
