international payment

Post by Germ »

Hi,
this is a bit off topic, but can anyone tell me what kind of payment they usually accept from international buyers? I certainly don't want to take a "cashier check". So what's a safe approach?

Thanks,

Chris

I use PayPal. They take a small percentage but it is safe. It's easy and free to sign up.

Be careful of international buyers!

There are lots of scam artists out there. There was a thread a while ago on this topic. They usually want to send you more money and have you pay some other obligation they have to a third party.
I wish my TOW was longer!

It's unlikely your international buyer is legit!
