Go to http://www.royal-mail.com where you can calculate the cost of postage, and find stamp information.

In a few weeks the prices change, the upcoming ones are in this pdf for your information.

Some overseas members have had trouble placing orders online at Royal Mail for stamps, and for others it has worked. I can't advise you further, maybe contact Royal Mail who are good at answering emails and tweets for help.

Oh and the UK does not have the EURO as our currency we have Great British Pounds (GBP), the smallest note is also £5.

I have had a similar problem as today I went to my local Post Office to send a letter and some photos to Chandler Riggs (Carl TWD). This is from [uk] to [us] . The cashier informed me that they no longer sold international reply coupons therefore I couldn't stamp the envelope back to me. Im not sure how else to go about it. Had recent success with Joel Courtney where someone on his end purchased the stamp to send back to me. Don't want to risk it though :(

I live in the United States and employees at my local post office have informed me that the USPS no longer sells international reply coupons. Also, for an 8 X 10 photo coming back from London to the United States, what is the recommended postage that I put on the envelope ? Thanks and have a great day !
No IRC from UK anymore :/ but you can get a £2.15 stamp that covers 60g (approx a 10x8 photo plus a 10x8 cardbacked do not bend envelope).
I get my American stamps from Ebay or by swapping with people on here. I'm just about to post some stamps tomorrow to someone I got talking to on here and he's sending me the equivalent back in forever stamps.
I was gutted when I found out they stopped IRC as I hadn't done any letters for years as I am a in-person collector unsually but to be honest I seem to be having more luck using stamps than I ever did with IRC.
Hope that is of some help and good luck.

Dumb question, does anyone send money with LOR for international? That way it covers the cost?
