UK to USA (Pre-pay Royal Mail)

First off, I'm so sorry for all my questions :?

I was just wondering if anyone has used the Pre-pay option through Royal Mail from the UK in an attempt to get autographs before.

As some of you might have seen I'm working really hard to get some signatures from those in the UK and I just don't have much faith in the IRC's.

I found this method of pre-paying for the mail and you put the address where it is leaving from to where it is going (from UK celebrity to my USA home) and then they let you print it and just tape/stick (you're supposed to use avery labels) it on to the envelope. I was gonna try this as a SASE (instead of trying to buy stamps directly from them) but wanted to know if anyone had any success with it previously. Or even tried it

That won't work. I looked into that, but I found out that the postage is only good for a day after you buy it.

By the time the SASE would reach England, the postage would have expired.
