Bank note in the envelop ( my favourite if money is less than $US30 )

Reliability = maybe low but I \'ll going to try this out

Cost= agency pays $US2 ( for its stamps ^^)

translator pays --- maybe all of his money to the postman.

Paypal < lot of pp like this but I don\'t have credit card > Find its detail in other postings.
