money orders?
2 Answers
I've learned that an alternative method to pay for goods over the net is via MONEY ORDER. If one does not have the facilility for credit or debit card or cheque payment and wishes to pay by money order for lets say an item in Dollars and is resident in UK. How does one get a money order for foreign funds?

Just walk into any Post Office.
International Money Orders are the international equivalent of postal orders. Tell the conter clerk the amount (in foreign currency) the order should be made out for. The clerk will calculate the sterling equivalent and then add their charge for the service.
(Note: IMOs aren't used very often these days. The post office staff will probably try to persuade you to use MoneyGram instead).

Certainly not 'any' post office - maybe larger ones, but I'm moderately sure that the UK Post Office no longer issues them. I've searched in vain on their web site and my local (small) Post Office has never heard of them.
Any major bank or branch of Thomas Cook will sell you a cheque is US$ for a hefty fee. Cash by recorded delivery is another option.
