Theres still a lot of shops in Japan that dont accept credit cards every transaction is done with cash or cheque
The post office aint that bad as when I needed some travellers cheques cashing they were the only ones who would cash them, as the banks would not cash them after 3 P.M
As for Jamie he does not have PAYPAL/NOCHEX accounts (dont know why but I think it is to do with him living in Japan for so long) but he does have a friend with one .
Best thing to do is email him and ask him what option's he can offer you.
I have had stuff off of him in the past and he is an honourable guy so I would'nt worry too much.
I also think the majority of the forum have dealt with him in some way or another, so as for being ripped off I dont know of anyone that has had a problem with him.
