Even I would suggest MoneyGram. So far, for me MoneyGram is the best. I tried everything from Muncha, thamel, moneytonepal, Wire transfer from Bank etc. But finally I found MoneyGram the fastest and reliable. Check details at moneygram.com

I did check PayPal, just curious and seems like PayPal charges are little more than $1 per transaction. Seems like if you withdraw money outside US, PayPal will change around 1+2.5=3.5% of transaction. See details below or check PayPal user agreement

Paypal Fees.

ATM Withdrawal US $1.00

(Plus any amounts charged by the ATM owner.)
Signature Withdrawal $3.00 if a signature is required.
Non-US ATM Transaction

(Using an ATM machine that is not in the US)
1%

This fee will apply even if the transaction does not require a currency conversion.
Non-US Debit Card Usage

(Making a purchase from a seller that is not in the US)
1%

This fee will apply even if the transaction does not require a currency conversion.
Exchange Rate & Fee The currency exchange rate is determined by PayPal based on the current market price and includes a 2.5% Fee. This Fee only applies when PayPal performs the currency conversion.
