  Comments:
Raising this again as a correspondent has pointed out that in many cases in Japanese it can only mean prepayment; not COD. That second sense, which looks rather contradictory, seems mainly/only to be applied in cases such as business-reply mail and collect telephone calls, where the payment is guaranteed. For regular COD you use 着払い.
I'm not sure how to reflect this - I have proposed some examples which may help.
