I am in the process of trying to pay for a print being sold to me by TOP FILM in the Netherlands? and cannot make heads or tails out of what they want from me to complete the order. They are very nice, incredibly nice, and I feel like a dumbkopf. I am hearing that they can only be paid via a tax account on their end and not from any bank here. I am confused as to what they are wanting me to send them and how. the amount is clear but the form of payment, the address to "send" it to, or "wire" it to is somehow not getting through to me. Is there anyone out there who can give me some more clues or tell me how you dealt with this company in the past? Any help would be appreciated and I apologize for not getting this process straight in my head.
Thank you,
Brian Cook

I am not sure what payment method your seller requires, however, you may find this of interest.

For payments to Europe from USA go towards the bottom of the page. It may not answer your question, but I hope it will help.

What I've done-as he's not in Paypal [Frown]

-is,Isent him Euros straight
in a letter-well concealed obviously,so that it looked like a small parcel etc, recorded. Why not ask if he accepts US$, once he took UK£ from me [Wink]

I think when I last bought from them by post, I sent some Euros - which is certainly easiest, so I'd do this unless it's a big order. The risk is extremely minimal, expecially if the envelope just looks like a normal letter.

Brian, perhaps I can help you.
I live in the Netherlands, so I could easily make a payment to Topfilm.
I have PayPal, so you could pay me.
