UK: Envelope & Stamp problem, PLEASE HELP!!

Unread post by Johntheblue9 »

Hi

I was recently given 6 First class stamps, for a standard size letter
However, i was also given 10 C4 (229x324) envelopes.

I was wanting to send out for 3 autographs with these, but could I just put 1 stamp on each envelope, or would i need a smaller envelope size??

Thanks

or buy yourself some make up value stamps. you only need 9pence more on each to cover second class large delivery, presuming you keep the weight under 100 grams. That being said, large envelopes without card support have a habit of allowing the contents to get damaged.

But no, in general regular stamps don't work on large letters, hence the different stamps being produced ;)
