I don't know why the forever stamp shouldn't work internationally

Did you put 2 forever stamps on the envelope and the celeb put others on it and told you this?

What you should keep in mind is that the forever stamp is only worth .42 atm. Which means, 2 forever stamps are worth .84 and two .94 stamps - of course - $1.88. What size are the envelopes you send when requesting an auto?

Maybe that's what the celeb meant {thumb2}

The envelope I send , requesting an autograph, are like a normal sheet. No I don't think the star thinked so because I putted on the envelope 4 for ever stamps and she answered me that aren't ok.
But honestly I received about 2 or 3 autographs with for ever stamps. I don't know
What do you think ??
noodlez, you that live in Europe like me how you do for the stamps ???
Thnx

As long as you put the correct amount of postage (in US stamps or IRCS)- they should be able to go international. Forever stamps (while they don't have a set value) are worth however much a standard first class stamp goes for. When I sent a letter to my sister in Vietnam I put 3 (1.26 worth approx.) and it made it just fine (the price had I just paid would be around .96). I am not sure if there are any other pieces of information that I am missing, which would make them not work- but from what you said, they should work as long as you put enough.

**shouldn't matter if you put one $.94 stamp or ninety-four $.01 stamps (although that'd probably peeve off the post office).

That postage should be fine. The forever stamps are good for one ounce postage (a regular letter) at whatever the current rate is. They will always be good even if the postage price goes up since you bought them. They are a god-send for us autograph collectors.
