Re: what options do a UK customer have? Message #3 Posted by David Smith on 8 Dec 2002, 3:26 p.m., in response to message #1 by barry
The problem with international money orders for most countries in Europe is that the post office does not actually sell them. They sell you a voucher that you have to send to the federal reserve bank in New York, who then sends it to Europe, who sends them a money order, who then sends it to you. Takes around two months. To make matters worse, most post offices don't even sell the vouchers. You have to find the proper post office that handles your country. To make matters even worse, only certain clerks do the vouchers... and they are ALWAYS gone.
