I've never seen a domain registrar accepting western union or didn't notice it.
It would be expensive and disturbing to receive the money.

Consider using a credit card, paypal or bank transfer instead of western union. Check also moneybookers, it may be valid for your country

Where are you from? Are you from Nigeria?

Using western union you will pay for money transfer more than this domain costs :)

Exactly what i was going to say.
No registrars are going to use WU.
Why not pay with your CC or Paypal, wont that be easier?

You should be able to discuss this payment method with any small registrar, they are most the time quite flexible. With the big ones you will have no luck.

I don't care how much I'm going to pay, I want to use westrenunion,
it's not a matter of money, I want to use WU to pay, I'm willing to pay to someone that will agree to order a domain for me, maybe a company, I will pay an extra few $ for the effort.

I've looked at registerkey.gr they are accepting paypal, not WU.
I'm looking for a .com domain, Thanks.

If you are going to pay for 10-15 years for that domain, maybe it would worth the trouble and extra fees.

My Google-fu is currently weak; a search only turned up the following three companies:
Registerkey.eu (http://www.registerkey.eu/)
4eit.com (http://www.4eit.com/domain-name-registration/)
Ez-DomainNameRegistration.com (http://www.ez-domainnameregistration.com/check_money_order.htm)

Disclaimer: I have never used the above services nor have I even heard of them before, so I cannot vouch for their reliability.

shinjiru accept western union, however as other people have mentioned it is probably not worth the transfer fees unless you are buying ALOT of them.

Correct me if I'm wrong but using WU can be risky. I've read a number of horror stories about people selling stuff, getting paid by a WU transfer only to have the money pulled back because it was bogus (after the product was shipped of course).

If that is the case, I suspect many registrars won't want the risk or hassle.

I'm not sure why the OP is hung up on WU, but in this day and age, you either have to use paypal or a credit card to do business on the net.

The whole point of western union is so that you cannot be followed by authorities as easily as you can with other systems. It's nothing to do with fees.
