http://www.westernunion.com/info/agentInquiryIntl.asp
However, Western Union Money Transfer is designed mainly for sending cash to friends and family in need, so telling them you are sending the money to an
eBay seller will prevent your money transfer to go through and you will be unable to complete this transaction.
Several IDs and utility bills are required before the funds are paid. Therefore, no
one else but your seller can pick up the money. Your payments cannot be
lost in the mail, like money orders or checks.
Because the fee to send a Western Union Money Transfer is high,compared to other methods of payment, we have arranged with the seller to compensate for half of this fee (i.e. if it costs you $100 to send the payment, take $50 from the amount insured and send the balance).
Once the payment was sent, email the seller the following information:
1) 10 digit MTCN # (Western Union):
2) Exact sender name on file with Western Union:
3) Your street address on file with Western Union:
4) City and country where you sent the money from:
5) Amount sent:
Then wait for the confirmation the payment was received. Within 3
business days, you will receive the tracking number for your
merchandise.
