I have no experience with this but his bank should be willing to verify the
authenticity of the cashier's cheque before hand.  There have been scams
involving phoney caxhier's cheques and it is quite likely that this is what
he is afraid of.  If he and/or you explained to his/your bank what is going
on and what the concerns are they might advise another funds transfer
vehicle or a way of pre-verifying the authenticity of the cheque.
