Just to follow up on last week’s post about the demise of BidPay – it seems that Jonathan’s experiences with Auctionchex have been favourable.

To quote:

[It] looks like auctionchex may be a good way to go for overseas payments:
(1) it is cheap – they make their money off the exchange rate differential (not through an extra $5+ like bidpay did), in fact they
only charged an extra R10.00 to post my cheque within the states.
(2) you don’t even need a credit card – you pay them by transferring into their FNB account.
(3) they have the appearance of being one of the smaller guys – which makes them easier to contact should there be problems.

Certainly sounds good to me.
