Nope we stopped using them in the UK sometime ago as there wasn't the need for them apparently. All I do now is add USD$ od CDN$ to anything I send over to North America

You can always find stamps from anywhere on eBay.

Sure you can find people on fanmail that will send you UK stamps in exchange for US. We have the automated checkouts in the post offices now so you could tell them the envelope size and weight of the return envelopes and they could get a whole bunch purchased for you. I'd probably do that in exchange for US or Canadian stamps.
Recent Successes:
Jessica Chastain, Saoirse Ronan!<3 (TTM), Uzo Aduba, Laura Carmichael & Zawe Ashton (ip), Jane Horrocks, Gemma Arterton, Jim Broadbent, Lucy Liu, Christina Ricci, Andres Muschietti, Bill Skarsgard, and the cast of IT, Ian McKellen, Noomi Rapace (VV), MST3K/Rifftrax main cast (Mike Nelson, Bill Corbett, Kevin Murphy), Geddy Lee (ip)

You could purchase it directly via online royal stamps website. I've been purchasing from them more than twice now and they are willing to ship it outside UK.

You can send to Europe, Canada, etc. You put several on your return envelope, and you only need to put one
(generally) on the envelope you send. Never had a problem with them!
If you're sending anything bigger than a 1oz 5x7, you're breaking the law.

I also don't know how you're getting packages returned if you're putting US stamps on both your main envelope & your SASE.
WaltG123 != WaltG123. & WaltG123,

There's a difference between blue text & a URL, ****. Those who can't read will be added to my ignore list.

Awww, how cute. Someone who thinks that people will be dumb enough to believe that they're me, despite the blatant period & completely different post numbers.

And, of course, the obvious fact that if, if it were me, I would've edited the post, not replied to it. Not to mention it's not necessarily true that "nobody but her will know why she signed it twice" & I'm smart enough to know that.

Not to mention the grammatical mistakes.

But, please, carry on. You can help me find more people to add to my ignore list. I don't need to be bothered reading posts by users that are stupid enough to believe that these 2 accounts are the same. I appreciate the help in weeding out the ****. So thank you. :D

Ok, you post proof that, as of now, Royal Mail will send stamps to US customers.

I can wait.
