find someone reliable or the third party to check the factory, see if it's worth ur deal or not. WU is not a guarantee, what if u remitted the money, but they just VANISHED??since this is a big deal, and u r in such a hurry, i personally suggest u use L/C, or T/T. or fly and buy.
good luck.
by the way, stay alarm and aware...![[em19]](http://img.alibaba.com/images/eng/style/icon/emoticons_great.gif)

Replying to [Blase]:As big deal ,I think west union is not a good choice ,because the rate is so high .if you trust your supplier you can use T/T ,or you can use L/C ,it's good for both of you .

If u r going to pay more than $500 ,WU isnot the right choice.they charge about$15 for every hundred dollars.Im that case ,u will find that u will pay more than $75 but a wire transfer for example will be about $40.There should be a friend or someone u know in that country to uarantee that u will get your goods even if it were a broker .to give a percentage to a broker is better than losing the whole money.

Unless you have done a good amount of previous business with a person or company, I would highly suggest you dont pay with wu, yes expensive, and if its a scam, your money is gone and there is nothing you can do. Use L/C or T/T, or the best way, almost fool proof, fly there and purchase on the spot. keep your eyes open and be careful

I have found on two occassions that once you pay money into a Western Union agent that's it.![[em11]](http://img.alibaba.com/images/eng/style/icon/emoticons_sweat.gif)
There is NO TRACK or TRACE of it so you cant check to see if the receiver has got it or if some thieving LOW LIFE associated to Western Union has it in their back pocket.![[em6]](http://img.alibaba.com/images/eng/style/icon/emoticons_rage.gif)
I would tell your supplier that unless they use a legitimate banking system that you will go elsewhere.
Dont tell me that you can't because there are plenty of suppliers out there that NEED TO SELL THE SAME PRODUCT; and believe me they WILL SHARPEN THEIR PENCIL TO GET A SALE.
