Paying a yank that don't take Paypal
Longun:
Any ideas how I could do this?
He's got some bits I'd like, is OK with sending them (Phew, that makes a change) BUT he doesn't take Paypal.
Any suggestions as to how I could get payment to him? A friend suggested a bank transfer to his account but, having dealt with US banks before I can see that being a complete mare.
Anyone got any friends stateside that I could paypal to and they could send on a cheque or something like that?
thanks

Could do Western Union but its a bit more costly and also a tad risky too, but so is tranferring directly to their bank acc.... can't advise anymore than that mate really :)

I've sent $200 in an envolope before but guy seemed genuine on u.s bmx forum with a good post count, send it special recorded/ signed for if it goes missing you will get some back, £88 i think. my deal went good, the guy even threww some extras in but it was worth the risk, but i felt sick for a few days hoping the guy would come good and send stuff to me.

I've done the Western Union thang and kept my fingers crossed, all came good and now after a bit of work I have this baby...
Any excuse to post a piccy :LolLolLolLol:
US Banks are a pain as they charge a huge inbound fee for international transfers, how about an international payment order or draft? All depends on how much it is and how much of risk taker you are Steve as a few have said you could just send the cash :daumenhoch:
