[lace] New Stamps from France

2011-10-14 Thread nicky.hoewener-townsend
I went onto the website too, I have no French so it was initially a little 
daunting, then I noticed that I wasn't viewing the whole page so moved it 
around and found at the very top right four/five flags and clicked onto the 
UK one, and hey presto the pages were translated into English - no problem - 
the payment pages were in French only but it was all quite obvious as to 
what to do so all very straightforward - for a change.

I just ordered all four stamps directly from the French postal service:
http://timbres.laposte.fr/detailarticle.jgi?index=3idArticle=100

Incl. postage the price is ?12.90 for all four.
Most of the site is in French.

I just posted a piece on LaceNews about 4 new stamps just issued by France 
on mechanical lace. Actual pieces of lace are glued to the stamps.

Hi arachnids,

Have just ordered all four stamps directly from the French Postal site. The 
site is in French but can be translated after a fashion (enough to 
understand what is going on) by the Windows program. My French is minimal 
and I was able to cope with it this way. The Lace stamps look really 
interesting.


Thank you Laurie for keeping us all up to date with Lace News.

Not wishing to simply add a me too - I had a look around the site and 
have also ordered a book of twelve stamps released in January this year 
- Fabrics of the World. These show representative fabrics for each of 
the countries featured -  carpets, embroidered satins, velvets, metallic 
embroidery, etc. By the looks of things postage is free but there is a 
handling charge of 2.90e which didn't increase when I added the book of 
stamps to my order.

Do you think it's possible for someone from the US to order from the site?  If 
I pay with a credit card will the currency get translated?  My French is not 
great but I could probably stumble through the site if I had to.
