I want to buy music sheets from a Japanese website (digital download), but when I got to check out it only accepts local credit cards and they don't take PayPal. I'm aware there's some 3rd party websites that can buy and ship things to you, but don't want to pay enormous processing fees for a $2 PDF file.
Any creative ways around this?

Maybe they are just not prepared for international customers. Japan's a bit insular like that, most of the ATMs in the country accept only local credit cards, notwithstanding the MC and Visa logos on them. You have to know which ones will accept foreign CCs. Try to source your music sheet somewhere else is all I can suggest.
