stclark816 Posted January 31, 2005 Report Posted January 31, 2005 Cant really go wrong with money orders. Wait till you get the money order, go cash it or whatever, then send ur board out. Quote
bansheefreestyler Posted January 31, 2005 Author Report Posted January 31, 2005 ya thats what i was thinking about doing. what about cashiers cheques? Quote
chris642 Posted January 31, 2005 Report Posted January 31, 2005 money order is better since it is as good as cash, checks are fine, you just have to wait for them to clear. that usually takes a week give or take. Quote
bansheefreestyler Posted January 31, 2005 Author Report Posted January 31, 2005 i think the guy is sending a cheque Quote
tithead Posted January 31, 2005 Report Posted January 31, 2005 cashiers check is this what us scots call a "bankers draught"???? you get the cheque from the personel in the bank and it garantee`s you have the money in your account and the cheque wont bounce? Quote
01bansheeke Posted January 31, 2005 Report Posted January 31, 2005 cashiers check puts a hold on the money in your account. Also, if you get screwed, the bank can charge it back the cashiers check is just as good as a money order. USe postal money orders. thats what i prefer. You can tell if they have been cashed. If dude sends you a regular check, make sure it clears before you ship. Quote
bansheefreestyler Posted January 31, 2005 Author Report Posted January 31, 2005 thanks guys for all the replies. and he says that after the checque cleras or w/e then i can ship the board out Quote
racer Posted January 31, 2005 Report Posted January 31, 2005 i prefer postal money orders. if you fuck a dude over and use one of those to do it, its a federal offense. so thats like an incentive to get your shit straight. Quote
