    forex payment options

    i just got the following from forexworld:

    >''With regard to payment, we do accept Paypal payments so payment can be instant before we ship your box.''

    this is good for me cuz í don't have accounts with the banks they use but i've been with paypal since day 1. it also answers my question about when it's necessary to pay.

    norm : ))~

    US Customs recently detected criminals sending Balikbayan boxes with gun parts & ammunition, Google it. They notified Ph customs who now claim they xray all boxes which adds a wait after the 4 week transit until release to the Marikina warehouse.

    We also have 3 boxes coming, so far no problem with flour and food, only rough local handling resulting in loss of 2 salsa jars & 1 can of beer :wink:

    Baltoed, welcome to the forum, good to have someone with your interesting background. I worked for SAIC when they came up with the VACIS Imaging System and sold to the government. Nice product, did you ever get involved with it?

    We're poor folks and have to make the best of our cheap, crappy, American made dollars, increasingly worth-less here in paradise :p
