Knowing the VIN is normal so they can run carfax; cashier's checks are as good as cash -- although you'd want to let all of that happen through a bank to ensure funds are available and then deposited.
As to shipping to other countries -- sure, why not? I mean, that's a hassle, but it's not exactly unheard of.
Well, anyway, GLWS!
