Since that time I have received over 70 responses for the $50 I sent her. My ad was specific (seeking attractive women taller than 5 ft 8 in) Had I not been that specific, perhaps the response double I have found far greater success placing my own personal advertisement than purchasing addresses through the several Russian "bride" catalog companies. If you are interested in placing a personal romance ad as I did, contact Olga. She has built up a list of most every newspaper and magazine in the former Soviet Union and could help direct your ad to certain areas if you wished. She writes: "please say that I place all ad _throughout_ Russia and other countries of former Soviet Union, not only Western Russia." Olga asks for $50 because this amount provides a fairly wide exposure. I think that of the $50 I sent, she paid newspapers around $35 and kept the remainder. Olga is 23 years old, has a bachelors in biology and works full-time as a florist in Kiev. She speaks, reads and writes English as well as her native languages of Russian and Ukrainian. I realize that it is a very trusting person who would place $ into an envelope and mail to a foreign country. And so, feel free to send a letter of inquiry. The time for a letter to reach Kiev averages 15 days and response 8 to 10. Olga Kozmina Dekabristov Street 5 - 178 Kiev 253121 Ukraine A month ago, I posted similarly on Olga's behalf. She wrote back: "I have already received 4 bank cheques on $50 (from two Americans, from a Speniard and a Australian). Thank you very much for your help! I will be able to receive this money in two months only." Apparently it takes several months for personal checks to clear. I have found that when I place a single bill between two pieces of newsprint inside of a white envelope, the Ukrainian post does not bother to tamper with it. I have yet to lose a letter sent to Kiev. I am sorry that Olga does not have e-mail. I am posting anonymously because of the inordinate amount of e-mail which I would receive -- inquiries as well as flames. Best Wishes, Brett and Olga ______________________________________________________________________ To: probable flamer Subject: polite note From: Brett Although Olga has never seen a newsgroup nor heard of "net- etiquette," she believes that offering lonely singles the possibility of romance exceeds the cost of angering those who feel the net should not be used in this fashion. IHA (I humbly ask) that you not flame the postmaster of this site. peace. . .
