I just wanted to know if anyone managed to do 
this successfully. There's a cel I know my sister 
would love, and I want to get it for her for 
Christmas. Yes, I like to shop for the holidays 
really early :). 

I know Canadians can't get money orders for 
Japan  -- I learned the hard way. I'm weary of 
sending cash through the mail -- the fact that 
it's illegal only makes this less tempting. As 
for wire transfers, Taro only accepts orders if 
they're over $500. :( 

So, if anyone has any good stories about sending 
cash through the mail, or advice, I'm willing to 
listen and learn.
