I recently did this through Ameritrade. I paid the normal $8.95 for the trade, but then had to pay another $30 to transfer the name on the certificate and have that certificate mailed. I'm not sure how these costs may differ elsewhere, but it was very easy. Scott >>>>>>>>>>>>>> I havn't done it, but there is a racket starting with Merrill Lynch (ed) for issuing certificates. I just got Waterhouse materials and they claim that there is no charge for delivery ( the name of issuing stock in paper form ) I don't know if they are unique, but Scott charges 25 bucks on a $7 trade for delivery. If any others are "free delivery" I'd be intersting in knowing who. I havn't tried them, Waterhouse, but it would be worth a call/e-mail to confirm. I believe that they trade for 12 bucks up to more shares than I have money for. duke - -
