Hi

I have some red Lettre Prioritaire stamps. Will they be OK to send to UK (Xmas cards)?

TIA

No, they’re 1,28€ and you need 1.50€ for outside France :wink:

No, you need violet ones….

Apparently you can print your own stamps online off the La Poste website

There is only one standard of letter post to UK (no 1st/2nd)… priced, as others have said at 1,50€… easily obtained from your local Post Office.

OK, thanks everyone.

Very kind of you.

Strange - the ones I bought online were 1.40-something (maybe 1.47?) for under 20gms. Have I bought the wrong ones?

1.50€ is the price,…

If you buy the stamps for printing yourself, they are indeed 1.47 - you have the right ones @SuePJ !

Strange, I filled in all the stuff about sending to the UK, less than 20gms, bought a whole sheet of them. Definitely less than 1.50€

Our posts crossed! You are quite right, Sue!

I am just about to do the same, but I have been printing these off for months now at that price…

I assume there is a discount for printing your own - I send a package every two weeks to the UK (documents) and it is also cheaper by a few centimes than buying stamps, but I do it because I have to go a fair distance now to get to a post office that works…

That’s good to know!!

I’m talking about over-the-counter prices for stamps bought at the post office or in my tabac, although I only bother with the prioritaire and the vitesse lente (rouge et vert) as I don’t have a demande for the european ones :wink:

official over-the-counter and print-at-home price info here :wink:

Last week I printed a page of stamps, via the laposte site, for Christmas cards to the UK. I can confirm the price was 1.47€ for 20g and under.

I know folk have many reasons for doing things on-line… but, whenever possible, can we support our local Post Offices…

La Poste is always threatening our local Sub-PO with closure… and it is actually a lifeline for those who do not have on-line facilities… as well as those who simply like to have it as a spot to collect parcels …

One reason don’t have a “pas de pub” sticker and accept having the publicity in my post box, as they get paid to deliver it…
