Why are you WIRING them money? If you verify a checking account with
them, they will make a draft withdrawal from your checking account (and
I have yet to hear of a bank charging for that). They also place a hold
on your credit card to speed up the processing (I'm not sure how they
are working that because it sounds like the money isn't immediately
released to the seller).
