I've just conducted my first transaction on BTC-E after coming across from Bter.

I noticed that btc-e pay 0.0005 network transaction fees whilst bter pays 0.0001. Both transactions make it to the next block.

That goes to explaining why btc-e charge a higher bitcoin withdrawal fee. I also noticed that due to this fee, sometimes it may be more favourable to conduct a transaction on bter after accounting for the reduced fee.
