Default Re: Old Man Needs Assistance
I just purchased a Crossfire in Florida and asked the seller how payment was expected. The seller asked his bank and was told a cashiers check drawn on a US bank would suffice. I obtained the cashiers check and flew to Florida from Canada.

We went to the bank, the check was studied, the bill of sale was notarized by a bank officer and the title changed hands, easy as pie. Within the hour I was driving back to Canada.

However, I can see that a check drawn on a backwater financial institution may be suspect though.

When it comes down to it I guess a wire transfer or even travelers checks would suffice. Cashiers checks do not need to be declared at the US border like cash over $10,000 does unless it has been endorsed by the payee.
