Western Union is very expensive also...

Direct wire transfer, bank to bank? It's something like $30 between US banks.

Cash never makes it through. Yes it might be insured but by the time you get your money back it usually takes 6 months.

Western Union is the best I have heard.

Ahhh, you are not getting interested in a Ukranian lady are you? If yes, be very careful, there are a lot of scammers over there. Pls PM for more info. I have 5 friends married to Russian/Ukranian women and spend a fair amount of time there on business.

Visit the FSU and Ukraine. Spend some time with the ladies over there and compare them to women in this country.

Then you tell us what you think. Its not a difficult decision...

Yup. I used to think the most beautiful women in the world where in Israel (something about a sabra with a big gun...) - until I visited Kiev. Absolute knock-outs everywhere.
