Thanks!

No brainer...Definitely do a wire transfer! It is much safer than a cashier's check, and it will give you peace of mind. When you are talking about a large sum of money, wiser to play it safe, and pay the stupid bank fee, (ours was $15 or $25, cant recall exactly), but well worth it. Incoming and outgoing wire transfer fees vary in price.
