How to put postage on return envelop for outside US?

Unread post by jimmymiro12 »

Hey guys
So I know there is the IRC thing but I am very confused.
I did read the stuff about conversions but I am very confused

Obviously my post office can put postage on the envelope going to the address
In this case it is

UK


I am using these envelopes as my return envelopes

So how do I go about getting postage for the return of these envelopes back to me?


Thanks

i buy UK stamps off people on here or trade for them. i use 2 first class stamps and 2 one pound? stamps on my return envelope. i also ask if they can send me the customs paper and i put that on the back of the envelope and fill it out.

its a lot cheaper that way b/c IRC's are hard to find and are expensive!

otherwise you just put your address on the return envelope as usual, and stuff the IRC's (i'd send at least 3) inside your envelope with your LOR/PIC



OTHERWISE, you could just throw in a $5 bill. Most celebs especially popular ones will have multiple bank accounts in different countries. but i would recommend the stamps, its the cheapest and best way IMO to get a return.

£2 in stamps will be more than enough for a normal picture and envelope to be returned to you. To work it out exactly go to http://www.royalmail.com and use the price calculator. Weigh your returnable items and input the weight in grams. International post is done by weight alone and not size here.

IRC's have a poor redemption value in the uk, just £.67, so trading for stamps will be the best bet. Or cash as ultimategear recommended.
