Trading cards on Net54 ? -Clarification ADDED -

[deadballera]

WHEN NO MONEY IS INVOLVED...

How safe is this ?

Who receives the cards first before the other is sent ?


I know this is buyer/trader beware...but wanted some thoughts and experiences.


thanks

I can't remember the last time I waited until I received payment before sending cards that a board member purchased. Never have had a problem.

Of course, now I've jinxed myself.

Rob: The check is in the mail. Really.

I've done at least 40-50 deals here. Payment and cards were always sent at the same time. No problems. Just don't do business with a one-poster that no one knows for big bucks.

If it is more than a couple hundred bucks and I haven't done business with them before, or see them do business with other folks, I'll wait. No worries with all the regulars from anything that I have seen.

Countless trades/purchases without any issues.

My first purchase off of the BST was from a guy that didn't know me from anyone else. When I agreed on the purchase price, he said that the cards were going out in the mail the next day......I told him that I probably couldn't get a check in the mail for a few days.....he said "no problem".

Because he was so genorous, I made sure that the check was in the mail the next day.

I have never had a problem. I did make one trade and we both told each other that the cards were going out the next day.....and they did. No problems.

Thanks Rob.

No problems so far w/ the trades I've had on this site. Thanks mainly to Leon's efforts, Net54 is a clean house. It's also the honor system, you don't screw a board member or you're outed! In other words, don't s--t where you eat! That said, I've also had my share of dealing with a few goofballs here in arranging transactions that, in hindsight, fortunately never happened.
