Electronic transfer to a US Paypal account would be uneconomical due to
high bank fees.
I'm perfectly willing to do that, if that's the right thing to do, but
my reading of the Paypal website doesn't suggest that I really need to
do it. Is there something that I'm not understanding?
I think you can send me Euros, Pound sterling, Canadian dollars, Yen,
U.S. dollars, and it'll be just fine. There's certainly some slippage
when they convert the currencies, but until I see how that works out
in practice, i.e. what rates they use for conversion, I can't really
judge how expensive that will be.
