Best way to receive $$ in Canada from USA

[Pharoah007]

Anyone ever recieved $$ electronically from the USA here in Canada? If so, what is the best most secure way to do so.

As I understand Western Union and PayPal are not very good as the sender can just dispute or cancel the transfer after the funds are sent and you mailed the item to the states.

As Luch suggested, I opened an RBC US bank account that can receive US wire transfers. Then once the funds are deposited, you can move them to your Canadian/US dollar account in Canada. I did this when I sold my GOT LE to someone in Utah last spring. Also make sure the person is reputable. I wouldn't mail anything until all funds have been received and maybe wait a couple days to be safe.
