Wondering if you guys can point me to who you use. I need to send some USD to China and am hoping to get a good rate with a lowish transfer costs..
I have looked at western union with 'money in minutes' but this is very very expensive as I have a largish amount.
Many thanks in advance

If you're buying a load of stock, might be worth looking at an escrow service, it's not uncommon for even 'trusted' companies to vanish if there's enough cash at stake.0 -
Great idea. would you know of any which specialise in this sort of business/part of world ?0

Alibaba/AliExpress offer escrow services, as do escrow.com. I would be cautious about using any other escrow service (unless your bank offers one) purely on the grounds that there was a rash of fake escrow services nominated by sellers some years back - then they'd scoot with your cash!0
