Best Method to Send Cash to someone in China

Hey all,
Just wondering what is the best money transfer method available apart from Escrow?
I am saying apart from escrow as im looking through the site and see they dont accept solo/switch debit cards but i do have a paypal account with £0 amount in it. So im not sure if i can use paypal even though i have a large amount in my bank account on those two cards.
So i ask you what is the other method which can be used? I have a very trust worthy supplier and been sending money through western union through the phone recently, but i been told that i can only send £1000 every 3 months through the phone and i havent got the time to go to a local agency every day.
E-gold is also i been told to use, but i dont have the first idea on how to use it and it looks really confusing with gold/silver etc
Cant use paypal as its not accepeted in china.
Il be really greatful if i can get some help.
Thank You

I am not too sure about other methods of getting money across to China, but be very careful about who you send huge amounts of money to like that half way round the world!
People can often act very trustworthy, sell you some goods to gain your trust, and then they will take £1000, for example from you for some more goods and then you never hear from them again - trust me I have high experience of being on the receiving end of this and it's not nice! :-/The main thing is to keep the main thing the main thing:)0
