Alright...one of my relatives are going to send me over some british stamps so i can put them on an SASE. Sooo...like when i get them and i wanna send it over to the U.K., do i do the same thing as i would do as american stamps? Like i put my stamps on the first one then put british stamps on my sase? Would it work out?

Yeah, just make sure you have enough stamps on your SASE. Good luck! I wish I had relatives that could send me british stamps. Lucky :)

Cool. So how many do you think would be enough for a 6x9 or 4x6? I don't really know exactly the postage for the U.K. You think uh....3 stamps would be good for 6x9 and 2 stamps for a 4x6? Thanks!

I found this chart on the royal mail website: http://www.royalmail.com/portal/rm/cont ... d=53800712

The USA is World Zone 1. I am not sure how much your letter weighs, but I would use that as a guide.

I once got a 9X12 envelope back from Britain and the agency put on two first class stamps and one 48p stamp and it got to me just fine.

Cool. That helps. How much is a gram? I'm sooooooo stupid. I always forget. :lol: You think a light cd cover, letter, and sase would be about......20 grams?

1 ounce is about 28.35 grams. I think a light cd cover, letter, and sase would be around 30 grams then?

You use American postage to send from the US to the UK (I believe you would use about 90 cents if it is an ounce or less). You put the £1.58 of British postage on the SASE (the envelope that will be coming from Britain to the US).
