CANNOT ACCEPT PERSONAL CHECK OR MONEY ORDER

What are you buying or paying for? You should be very careful with sending to money to China. They can only accept money transfers, western union, or payment through Alibaba, or Chinese PayPal. (((Regular PayPal in USA is not capable of converting or sending in Chinese RMB. ))) Western Union is the most expensive option, the more money that you send with them, the higher the fee (cased on a percentage) Money wiring requires you to know the following about the person in China.

a. Bank Name
b. Address, Branch Location
c. SWFT Number (Absolutely Required for Intl. Transfers)
d. Account Number
e. Name on Account (EXACTLY AS IT SHOULD BE)

Any small mistake or typo and forget it, your payment will not go through. So be careful when you setup the money wire. China is a "Slow to Pay" country so expect your paymenbt to take anywhere from 48 hours to 72 hours..

they will but be very safe when it comes to that because money orders aren't that easy to track in foreign districts. you also may have customs issues and they might not take responsibility for that it is best to use pay pal so you don't get scammed. i know that was not exactly what you were looking for but it is a issue
