I had forgotten to mention that I factor for Larry Pieniazek and
his dealings in the UK. You can send him a cheque/postal orders
for US dollars, and I will make good the payment with a personal
cheque to the relevant person in the UK. There is a 50c or
1$ charge for the service, though, which covers my postage, etc.
Probably the cheapest option around, and certainly quicker,
as my access to the service of postal order cashing is
intermittent. Once a month, if that.

| I'll keep this in mind. Thanks to all who replied. Time was growing short, so I took the $8.50 option. Next time I need to factor all costs (hidden or otherwise) before making a deal. Oh well... not a terrible loss. Thanks for the help. -Rob (...) (25 years ago, 14-May-99, to lugnet.loc.uk, lugnet.market.buy-sell-trade)
