Checks are not used anymore in The Netherlands. We used to have them, but 
given that they were not used much the banks decided to get rid of them 
when the Euro came.

I have regularly used IceGold over the last few years to convert gold into 
money in my dutch bank account. Paul Vahur and his employees have always 
given me very good service.

While they are located in Estonia, the money shows up in my account within 
a few days. Sometimes even within a day, even though I'm using their 
slowest service.

As banks in The Netherlands do not charge as much for incoming 
international payments, so the cheapest option is to choose receival fees 
paid by receiver. In total the international wire fees from Estonia and The 
Netherlands combined are then usually less than EUR 15.

Eurogoldline may also have a dutch bank account, but I have no experience 
with them. If they do, it's probably cheaper to use them, as bank transfers 
within The Netherlands are essentially free. Let me know if you decide to 
use them, as I'm interested in your experiences then.
