Doubts about IRCs >-<

[ForeverYoshi]

Hi! I'm new on this and I have a doubt about IRCs.
If I send them in my SAE (I have to send a SAE or a SASE? My fan mail goes to another country) I don't have to send money for the response, right? Only IRCs?
How many IRC I have to buy approximately? I only want an autograph and maybe a letter.
Sorry for my bad english guys

Yes, you put your IRC's in an envelope to the celeb, along with your SAE, letter &photo (if you're sending a picture).

I would use 2-3 IRC's since UK postage is expensive.

Hope that helps!

Hello!

Your chances of receiving a reply back increase if you send a SASE. You can buy UK/US stamps online or perhaps trade for those. Good Luck!

Thank you so much!
I have a new problem now. I was asking in some post offices and they don't know what are IRC. What can I do now? Send money? In dollars or pounds sterling? How much?

[kimmylee]

You would need the currency of the country you are sending to, so pounds sterling.

Or you could look here on the forum for someone to sell you UK stamps

Thank you How many pound sterlings should I send?

[kimmylee]

You can calculate prices here.

I wouldn't send coins, our smallest note is 5 GBP.
