I need English stamps - Could trade for $0.84 US stamps!

I'm located in Sweden and I'm having difficulties to obtain UK stamps (Royal Mail is a cr*p postal service :P Their online shop doesn't work good for foreign customers).

So, for any UK member (or anyone else who owns UK stamps) who wants US stamps, I have a suggestion:

I'll send you 10 x $0.84 US stamps. One of those is enough to send an ordinary return envelope from the US to UK (or any other European country). Which means, the bunch will be enough for 10 SASEs.

In return, you send me 10 x £0.44 UK stamps? The value is almost the same I would think.

So, If you have a hard time getting US stamps, this is a good deal for both of us! :) The only cost will be the postal price from your country to Sweden (which isn't much), and vice versa for me.

Please PM me if you're interested!

Thanks, Johan

The cost of sending a letter from the US overseas has gone up: 0.90 or 1.07 is the new price, depending on the size and weight of what you are sending.

Sorry to be the bearer of bad news. :(

Really?

That's... unfortunate, seeing as I have like 17 unused $0.84 stamps :P

You can always buy stamps to cover the difference, or hope the post office doesn't notice that the postage is short and send it anyway.
