buying Express steel panels in USA

Post by mark »

hi all, I am looking at buying a couple of parts from Expressed Steel again. My first purchase caught me off guard as I had to "wire" the money to their bank in England. They said the only way they do international sales is by money transfer directly to their bank. I never wired money before and found the banks wanted $55-$65. My credit union did it for $45. And Express Steel charged about $19 for the transfer.....almost $65 total !! This was a substantial percentage of my total cost. Western Union told me it would be about $8 if their bank was "in the network" but since they are not, it would be about $65. Has anyone in USA found a "cheaper" way to transfer funds to Expressed Steel?
