Money orders are purchased from Australia Post, but they are only in ausralian dollars so would not be any use overseas. If you are purchasing something on line - consider paypal If you want to send funds to family/friend then you need Western Union Money Transfer. You can also do this from Australia Post, but when I tried their machine did not work very well and they couldn't do it, so I went into Perth to a Pharmacy near the train station and they did it within seconds. You can also do it on-line yourself (I haven't tried it). You have to make up a question that they know the answer too, then they take the information to another Western Union Office (often banks) and give the information and get the money. It can happen in 1/2 hour with mobile phones. Read the link below, they have a FAQ section that explains it and how to do it on-line
