ABOUT PAYPAL: FWIW, after recommending it, I feel I need to direct your attention to this site which I didn't know about before. Apparently some people have had problems with PayPal, esp. if they are from outside the USA.

That same site also has a page of suggested altenatives, one of which is AnyPay, which they recommend for anyone overseas.

Hope this helps and I would also recommend asking Max what his experiences with PayPal are.

Thanks,
