I hope this question is appropriate, I will remove if necessary. I have always used Western Union for business in the past. I only have the option of money order or bank wire. Any preference?...................Thanks

Bank wire is faster and vendor I believe does not know your identity as all they get is a Bank number and amount. This may be different in certain curcimstanses but international I think it is so. Please correct if I'm wrong.

If it's going overseas it doesn't matter much anyway. The bank wire is safe as is the money order. with the first option being faster

Enlighten me about "Bank Transfer".. I have only used WU in the past..and am currently very uncomfortable with their tactics.. In short I don't want to give them any further business..Not sure if my "home boy" will take money orders..but the bank transfer might work. Tell me how you do it!

Just get all the info from your guy...(where he wants it sent) then take it to the bank.... they'll know what to do. Mine cost 10 bucks for 2K

Bank wire is the best by far, cheaper than WU too.

A bank wire transfer can be recalled but if you are sending to China it is a pain in the but. I used to wire transfer to Ankebio. The receiver gets the information you enter as special instructions and the "for" purpose of the transfer. Also your banking account number as the source of the funds, bank routing number and your full name and address etc.. At least in Calif. banking regulations, you can only wire transfer money from your bank account so you will have to deposit it into your account for them to transfer it. This is post 9-11, thanks Mr. Bush.
