i've got a question first:
WHY DA HELL is EVERYBODY talking about 20.000$??
why is EVERYBODY thinking that they are 20.000$ worth?
just because ChengChinaRiceEaterLeeeee aka "Ocean" said he needed 20.000$ donations for the server??
20.000 is a reasonable price IF you're willing to keep the files for yourself.
this is about monopolization... the more server open, the less money you get from gamers.
So basically 20.000 is a decent price. their income is about 3-5k a month. it'll be difficult to make them see the files.
they make those 20.000 in about 5 months hosting
besides that, the chinks wrote "20.000" to shake you off.
if you hear such amount of money, you'll be losing interest.
(same on WTT FOR on p-servers.. if someone asks you if you wtt your glavie, you just say "yes. for 20b gold" and they don't answer you anymore. this is the same situation)
they won't believe you really have 20.000 to spend, and IF they do, they'll be afraid of getting scammed. there will be NO middleman in this case. impossible.
so the only chance you have, is to get in touch with them (i suggest through maya), and try to handle a reasonable exchange between the files and the money. forget paypal

bank transfer would be the only way.
and then you MUST think about 1 thing:
(I'm sorry to say this..I'm NOT a racist...)
Chinese's mentality is: "we are HUMANS, all other people are lower-races and the only thing we do with them is to take their money away".
this may sound rude/racist or whatever. but i've done a lot of stuff in my life, I've met a lot of people, and actually, there wasn't even 1 Chinese, that was nice to me without me being his "customer".
check the Chinese-psro-online servers.. they BAN you, they EXCLUDE you because you aren't Chinese!!! "Chinese-only"
sometimes i see Chinese players on MySro.. they NEVER say hello, they never reply. (would you talk to an unknown dog?)
ok.. back to the main thing why i wrote this down:
the only way they're going to do business with ya is through MoneyBookers.
after they getting the money, they'll think this way: "shall i be nice like i said and send him the files and have + 1 server stealing my income, or should i laugh at him because he sent me the money...I'm Chinese, i live in china, there's NOOO way he gets me anyway"..
i'd be MORE then careful....
these guys don't wanna ruin their monopoly.
same as joymax.. joymax won't sell their files to any company.. they need to be sure the buyer has enough skills to protect the files from being leaked.
