Another thing that can be done, providing thier bank doesn't overcharge for it, is to open up accounts in a bank in each country. start it with maybe 20 bucks. Then you can transfer money to it then give them a check.
It will cost you a fortune to transfer money overseas, and many banks require you to open the account in person.

How about if we offer an option for a $15.00 coupon to our store. Would that help? We thought about just giving a credit back on your charge card, but each transaction like this costs us about $3.00. We could offer to credit your card for $12.00 in place of the check?
I'd rather take the $12 than the $15 coupon. There is no garantee that I'll be interested in another Shrapnel game. What's worst, buying a game from the US from my place (Australia) means almost 100% inflation on the price - for shipping, credit card charges etc. SEIV costed me a fortune compared to an off-the-shelf game here, and an off-the-shelf game here costs twice as much again compared to the same product brought from places like Hong Kong (I'm talking about legal originals of cause!). So you get my feeling.
What's stopping you guys from taking that $15 off the purchase price? We can provide some prove of purchase, anything BUT a piece of the CD... I just don't feel nice doing THAT! And what about an UPGRADE Version that requires the original during installation? I've bought a very expensive 747 instrument simulator that did exactly that when a new Version came out.
