Just occasionally the Amazon gift certificate is a useful international currency - I have used it a couple of times. Do you have any means of buying dollar travellers cheques without charges on any of your bank/building society accounts? If so, buy travellers cheques for the amount, make them payable to the supplier and send through the post. The UK Post Office now sell travellers cheques without a fixed charge, but I don't know how good or bad their exchange rates are. -- Money can't buy everything. That's what credit cards are for.
