What sort of SASE do you use?

Unread post by Star9685 »

Hi,
I was just curious to see what sort of SASE everyone uses.
I have always used an Evidence 9x12 white pull and seal envelope.
I had bought a pack of 25 at Wal-Mart for about $5.
Now, I've checked 3 different Wal-Marts, and none have that pack in stock. :(
They still have the same brand of envelope, only yellow with just the metal clasp seal, for about $5.
But, I don't want to use those...I'm not sure if you're supposed to send them anyway. But even if you did, the clasp could break.
So, I bought a pack of 6 of the same Evidence 9x12 white pull and seal for $3.50. :neutral:
My post office doesn't even sell 9x12!
Just 10x13, which I find too large...

So, just curious, what sort of SASE do you always enclose?
I wouldn't include anything smaller than 9x12 so the celeb can include any picture they want to..

I send C5 envelopes which is around 6x8 inches (half A4). Any bigger i have to use 1st class stamps which are more expensive and i have never had an autograph back thats bigger than half an A4. {thumb2}

Sometimes if i send to EE, i use C6 envelopes which are a quater of A4 (6x4 inches) but thats only because i garentee they are that size so they fit {thumb2}

Thanks for the input! {thumb2}
But, since most celebrities use 8x10 pictures , I've always felt like it's a good idea to have an envelope at least that size...

Hi!

Most of the time I use only 4x6 inches (10x15 cm) envelope simply because I like sending my own photos to sign, and they're of the same size. Very rarely, when I want to get the photo the celebrity sends out and I know it's bigger, I include 9x12 or similar envelope. But I prefer 4x6 SASEs because the postage is cheaper :D .

I dont think most celebrities use 8x10 pictures. I think most use 6x4 which is around a normal photo size {thumb2}

Hm, really?
I've always recieved 8x10.. Well except Chelsea Staub, but she sent me one that was about 8x10, and one that was about 6x4 or so. Drew Seeley did the same too actually.
But, anyway it probably just depends on the person! {thumb2}

I do the same thing as Sammya. Except, the envelope isn't exactly 4x6. It's a different size, but it can fit a 4x6, it's just very wide, you know, the standard white envelope.

Good luck with finding the envelopes you want for the same price!

Thanks, haha.
And yeah, I use 6x4 envelopes to send., I just use the smaller SASE.
Thanks everyone. {thumb2}
I may have to start using a smaller SASE to cut postage price as well.

:D
