Please mail prices of International Reply Coupons (IRCs) of other  
countries and corrections to me at:  europesurf@xxxxxxx

I guess that prices in Venezuela, China and Jamaica could be even cheaper  
than Grenada! So these prices and other cheap prices are most welcome.
I WILL COMPILE AN UPDATE of this list after ENOUGH INFORMATION WILL HAVE  
BEEN RECEIVED.
Any comments or ideas on getting more prices are also welcome.

                         73,
                                 Stephan
