  Cash through the mail (US $) or PayPal mostly. I accept money orders in US funds only (Canadian Postal Money Orders can be cashed at US Post Offices). Personal checks take forever to clear.

  PayPal will handle payments with several international currencies. The sender simply has to specify which currency they wish payment to be sent in.

  I ship a lot to Tiawan and they always send CASH by registered mail, paypal works also.

  It is not exactly cheating, I prefer to consider it creative problem solving!!!

  Wire transfers also work but be sure to check with your bank regarding fees. My bank charges $20 for an inbound wire transfer.

  PayPal's easiest. Instant money.
  
  Cash through the mail is also nice, but a little risky. FWIW, though, I've never had cash lost in the mail. Make sure it's well concealed, of course. I may be weird, but I have no problem accepting any convertible currency. Just add a little for the conversion commission, and round up to the nearest bill (no coins).
  
  International Money Orders might be an option, depending on what country. BidPay does a couple other countries, if I recall correctly.
