    Default Question about selling/trading/buying boards from people here

    How do most people go about doing this safely? Im sure someone has to haev gotten ripped off before. I mean if you were shipping or had a board r something shipped to you, how would the money be handled? Thanks for the insight

    paypal will give you slightly more security. I wouldnt buy from someone who is a new member or not well known, at least not with cash up front.

    I would say your best bet is paypal. If you are the buyer, say you want a tracking number, and they don't ship it, then paypal will make him prove he shipped the board. He'd have to have a tracking number or receipt from ups, usps, fex, etc. If you are the seller, then you'll def have your money if he uses paypal because you shouldn't ship the board until you receive the money anyways. If he tries to rip you off and take the money back through paypal, just use the tracking number to prove you shipped it. I think paypal is the safest way to go, other than locally with cash.
