1. There is actually no such thing as an American postal order. What you need is a Bankers draft which you will get at any of the big 4 banks. I get mine from the Royal Bank of Scotland and they can get you one in a few days. They ask you to fill in a form with all the details on and they will make a small charge. The exchange rate is the one prevalent on the day it is paid for,not on the day you order it. With the current rate of exchange, now is the best time to buy, about $2.05c to the £
