Ok fellow forumites, since many of you (over 1400)have read my post about "blademan_007" on the Good, the Bad, and the Ugly forum, I have a question.
Please answer by letter and with any additional comments you may have.
BTW: There is no correct answer, just curious.
Question:
If you have made a deal with a fellow forumite for a blade you posted for sale on the Exchange forum, under what conditions would you go ahead and ship the blade on the "honor system", expecting the funds to be sent likewise? This question assumes you agreed to pay shipping domestically in your asking price as well as not taking pay pal or credit cards.
A.) Ship it in blind trust.
B.) Ship it only if the buyer provides you a tracking number or confirmation number from their shipment of funds.
C.) Ship it only if the buyer faxes you copies of the certified funds (money order, certified check, cashiers check, etc.)and provides a tracking or confirmation number or Priority Mail Cash Receipt.
D.) Ship it only once you have received the buyers certified funds.
Let's hear it!
