Doubts about IRCs >-<

Hi! I'm new on this and I have a doubt about IRCs.
If I send them in my SAE (I have to send a SAE or a SASE? My fan mail goes to another country) I don't have to send money for the response, right? Only IRCs?
How many IRC I have to buy approximately? I only want an autograph and maybe a letter.
Sorry for my bad english guys :oops:

Yes, you put your IRC's in an envelope to the celeb, along with your SAE, letter &photo (if you're sending a picture).

I would use 2-3 IRC's since UK postage is expensive.

Hope that helps!

Hello! :)

Your chances of receiving a reply back increase if you send a SASE. You can buy UK/US stamps online or perhaps trade for those. Good Luck! :)

Thank you so much! :D
I have a new problem now. I was asking in some post offices and they don't know what are IRC. What can I do now? Send money? In dollars or pounds sterling? How much? :?

You would need the currency of the country you are sending to, so pounds sterling.

Or you could look here on the forum for someone to sell you UK stamps :)

You can calculate prices here.

I wouldn't send coins, our smallest note is 5 GBP.
