IMOs do exist. I use them all the time. But until recently, I worked for
a bank, so it was easy. I believe they cost GBP7.50.
For $12, I'd just send it in a letter, with enough sheets of paper so
that the money can't be seen through the envelope. Although Todd's just
suggested wrapping it in foil in a thread somewhere else, which sounds
like a good idea.

| (...) Why foil? I have sent cash through international mail ok, but did wonder if it could be 'sniffed out' by dogs, machines or people with very sensitive hooters. Maybe I have answered my own question. Ian Bishop, Ayrshire, UK (25 years ago, 28-Oct-99, to lugnet.loc.uk)
