Celebs, or whoever sends it back out, don't necessarily want to stand in line at the post office to get the correct postage. It's easier for them for us to give them a stamped envelope so once they sign the item and put it in the envelope, they can just drop it off at the post office.
It's also just rude. You have no right to demand a celebrity pays for doing YOU a favour. You're asking them to do something for you, especially when you want more than one item. It's people like you who give collectors a bad name.
Things not to do, forget your autosaved password for a forum. Woops.

It's like when you meet them in person. You hope that they have the time to take a pic with you, but you don't ask for their money just because they have it.
