What kinds of British stamps, and where do I get them?

I've measured my SAE, and have the weight for it.
According to the RoyalMail website, it will cost £3.15 in postage from England to the US.
I've been looking on ebay for British stamps, and some websites, but am unsure what the stamps mean. I see stamps marked 1st class, 2nd class, etc., but have trouble equating a US dollar amount.
I just want to buy some British stamps here in the States, without having to convert to pounds and pay hefty shipping.
The RoyalMail website allows one to print postage label stamps, but again, it's not converted to US Dollars so I didn't attempt.
I've heard of some folks just throwing a few US bills in with their letter to cover postage. A $5 bill ought to cover it.
For those that did: how did it work out? Seems like the easiest option.
