It's not really a common thing in Britain to do driect bank transferals. Especially over the internet where it involves giving specific bank details.

I think it exists.. not sure what the right term is though.
it'll probably be quite expensive to do though. he'll probably ask you to pay for all the costs.

meaning, I've ordered some books from Belgium a few months ago and I did make an international bank transferal - there are quite some administrative costs that need to be paid.
and that was within the European Union, so that would be cheaper than overseas.

why not use an international money order? go down to your bank and get one. i think they cost a few euros though

Well nacmat:
a) It does seem expensive for the CD unless you really really want it.
b) A cheque can normally be issued by a bank against your current account. Basically it is just like a personal money order type of thing.
c) If you really want it and you are having trouble sorting out a payment method with him, as a last resort I would be willing to send him the money here and you can paypal me the money instead. But try to come to an arrangement with him, because I wouldn't want to get involved in any shit if he decides not to send the CD etc.

I don't know how much it normally goes for. I just know that personally I wouldn't pay that much :)
See whether your bank will issue cheques. Failing that just see if the seller will accept an international money order. There shouldn't be too many problems with that I don't think.
