Sounds good.. I'm not too familiar with the business so I'll take your word for it as most everything else you've done here on FT is pretty legit.
I'm still a touched confused as the benefit comes in making the purchase at the black market rate for VEB. If you put USD into an escrow, fine.. you'd pay the same rate (or thereabouts, of course) as you would stateside.
How do you overcome that exchange problem?
Travelman770 recommends locals who can pay for the tickets themselves and you/I as a buyer reimburse the purchaser at the VEB rate (plus $$ for their help).
You probably stated it and I missed it... if so, that's fair, just cut/paste the answer
