Re: how do I send money overseas?

thanks for the advice everyone! But no way would I buy something from a shady ebay seller like that. This is a friend of a friend, and I'm trying to save us both money here. I considered just mailing the check, but that takes time, and I don't know if he would get a crappy exchange rate or not (not sure which country to do the exchanging in). I think if I do exchanging from usd to gbp here it I get a better rate than if I did that in GB... ???

well.............................................. . the deal is I'm going to buy one of these:



whadya think??? It's a lot of money, but ever since I saw them I have to have it!!! I'm going to go demo one tomorrow first...

I would go with a money transfer through your bank, easy, secure, inexpensive.
