Paypal. Rule of thumb.... Cash in hand first. Nice guys finish last.

he wont know, but thats why most people usually only deal with high ranked members/active members. itll sure ruin your credibility and likely no one will ever buy from you again.

Yes by all means NEVER ship until you have all the money first. No money, no ship!

On Ebay you noramally pay first before the seller ships. Whenever I've sold on ebay I make sure there's a tracking number I can give to the buyer to show it was shipped and they can track it. after that point it's off my hands.

Go to paypal and set up an account for yourself . Then when someone wants to purchase from you , you give them the total price , including shipping, and give them your account Number. I have also accepted postal money orders . If some one wants me to accept a personal check , I tell them sure I will ,BUT , I will not ship until it clears my bank.
Paypal is the easiest though.
And most peeps buying fish to be shipped already know the rules . No pay No ship .
