So what does that have to do with the topic of this thread? Or are you just attacking the poster and not the post?

Politely pointing out the forum etiquette, as you well know. But feel free to ignore it....

In that case shouldn't you be staying on topic?

Getting back on topic, I have rented several condos in the US over that last 10 years or so with no problem whatsoever. It helps if you book via the likes of Owners Abroad, AirNB, etc who offer a guarantee scheme. Having said that, I have sent money direct to owners' bank accounts.

We want to rent a condo in the USA for our holiday. The owner has asked us to send a cheque for the deposit, but our bank can't give us a dollar cheque. The owner hasn't got a paypal account so how can we pay her without incurring large fees? Thanks

I always find the "I don't have a PayPal account sorry" line very silly coming from people who regularly receive payments from people. Just tell them nobody had a PayPal account until they signed up to it!. Its not like it costs money to sign up to.
