[OT] Payment Internationally

Jon, setting up to be paid by PayPal is easy - though you may wish to
add a 3% surcharge.

I have found the most cost effective (if not using International
Credit/Debit Cards) is to use a Western Union Money Order via the
post-office.
No bank involved (although it's around AU$7.50 for the privilege).

I always use direct cash payments via paypal since I don't have an actual
"Revolving Charge Credit Card" [that may change since the government is
insisting we 'travel' as part of the job and the Agency insists we use the
government credit card for expenses for 'official' travel] but instead I use a
'bank check access card' with a Visa logo that acts as a
credit card (no pin) or debit card (pin) both - the difference is
transparent to me since there are no fees for either transaction although the
protection factor differs between the two modes.
