If the sites start cutting checks from foreign banks, is this a problem? Will American banks accept them? From what I've read from a few minute google search, you can usually get your bank to cash them, but it's a pain. Does anyone know more?

The stars checks do say "US BANK" on it. Looks really cheesy to be honest, but as far as I can tell it's taken from a US bank account. Can't vouch for any other companies checks. American banks still have to accept foreign checks, global trade would be impossible if not. Our government might be stupid, but it's not THAT stupid.

Right. Then what's the big deal if the sites just start issuing foreign checks? Maybe TPCEO can answer this or you can. I mean from what I understand a lot of the panic in sites issuing checks is they need a provider (i.e. bank) that will accept them.
