That is bizarre - considering that I can go into my local Australia Post
Office in a country town, buy a Western Union International Money Order in
US dollars for AU$8 (just over US$4), pay for it in Australian Dollars,
watch the nice lady punch the details into a counter top terminal which
also tells her the day's conversion rate and calculates the charge for her
and post it on the spot. The same place also does the much more expensive
but convenient WU wire service.
You guys are seriously underserviced!
