So after reading all this, What does everyone suggest other than "Cash on the Glass" to protect yourself from getting scammed? Im getting ready to sell a Ghostbusters, and don't want to get screwed out of my game. Usually I'm not opposed to doing business with someone out of state, but now Im thinking twice about that. I saw someone posted to use escrow.com. Anyone else tried that? Being a former business owner of a retail bicycle shop, I would get disputed checks every so often, after the money had been deposited. Then I was out the money and the product. Had to file a police report etc....which did nothing.
For the record I have never had an issue buying and selling with Paypal. However on large purchases, I would rather pay a little extra and have an invoice from the seller as protection. As a Seller, friends and family the money.
