How do you guys just send money to people you dont know. I see things in the for sale forum but cant send money to strangers. I've brought things from Re and cardomain without a problem. How do you do it?

It's really no different buying things out of the Classifieds section here than buying from eBay.

Having detailed pictures showing the item(s) in question and good references (feedback, if you will) help you sell more quickly. Also doing a bit of research into the individual you are considering buying from can help. Buying anything online is a risk. It becomes a matter of how much of a risk you're willing to take, I suppose.

Also, a lot of us show up here daily (at least weekly) to read, post, chatter, buy, sell, and research.

So you get a feel for who you're dealing with after awhile. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

Most of the time I use money orders, though I signed up for Paypal a few months ago, have been doing some things through that.

If I really want to be safe and don't mind waiting a little longer I'll write a check.

they must have a paypal account, and they send the amount for the item to your paypal or e-mail account.
