I have a friend in Finland who wants to take money out of the game. After she has exchanged Lindens for dollars, how does she get them to her account other than an international check which costs US $100? She cannot do paypal. thanks for the help.

International check should be $15. I don't know where you get $100..
As far as having 250 though for cash out yes that I think should be addressed though.
Its a shame paypal limits some countries. IMO cash outs should just be made back to the originating cc. It makes it easy to get money into the game but hard for those with that kind of restriction to get it back out again. Hopefully this issue will be looked into.

There are other ways such as selling it through a third party or local person but the only recommended way is through official channels. Sadly they are lacking in this respect.

best of luck.

lol, I was looking at the minimum to purchase thinking that was the fee. Having an off day. Thanks for the reply. $15 is reasonable, I guess. :)

Do any of the third party websites (slexchange, slboutique, anshe, etc) support anything other than PayPal?
