I know that here in Canada we can buy a coupon that Canada Post says is
honored by any country's postal service for mailing to Canada.  The problem
is that you have to go to a US Post Office to exchance it for a stamp (and
then I guess US Post gets money for it from Canada Post).  I can see that it
would be a pain in the bus to go to the post office with 123 of these from
18 different countries.
