A friend of mine was asking me about using bitcoin to transfer a large amount of euros (6 figure range) in an account outside the US to USD in his US bank account.  All of this to avoid the large exchange fee from euros to dollars.  I was thinking wire transfer the euros to bitstamp, buy bitcoin, sell bitcoin for USD on bitstamp, wire transfer USD to his bank account.  Does this sound right?  I've only dealt with USD and coinbase myself so I'm not sure, any input would be appreciated.
