HELP!
I don't live in America and would like to include a SASE in a fan mail I hope to send there soon. There's a link to the USPS website, but ARE THOSE STAMPS STILL VALID? if not, where do I buy valid ones from? can stamps expire? if you use an older one, do you have to use more of them?
help much appreciated!

Any stamps sold on the USPS website are still valid.

Older stamps are indeed also valid as long as the value covers the postage cost.

I just used the last of my $1.05 stamps (the ones they did a few years ago before introducing a Global Forever stamp), no problem with validity because I used enough to cover the current price.

If you are unsure then forever stamps are worth the current selling price, everything else will have a $/cents value on. The website has a price calculator so you can check current prices.

USPS don't accept web orders from outside the US on their website but will ship worldwide from their official eBay shop.
