This guy seemed extremely wierd to me, of course i wouldnt of had to send first or same time, but he was so persistent on making a trade, it raised a redflag..hopefully he gets whats coming to him

Let me clear this up. There is nothing wrong with sending cash. I have received it many times without problems. But whenever selling in general, do not send first or at the same time. Any form of payment is good as long as you receive the payment before you ship your end of the deal.

Yea the biggest problem with sending cash is having the P.O. people rip you off. Thats why whenever somebody sends me cash i now make sures its in a Birthday card or something. Good luck getting your cards back! thanx

Or you can place it in between several cards or something. As long as it is well concealed it wil arrive safely. Sometimes I also tell people to ship with insurance that way they are covered if it gets stolen.

I forgot to add why i felt there was something wrong, he told me "i have 250 Tigers cards to trade for insert card here" i asked simply for a list of the Tigers players, and an amount per card, looking like this

(its an example)

Verlander- 10
Ordonez- 7
Zumaya- 4

he couldnt even do something simple like that..

its not a matter of losing the cash or not, its that the guy was a scammer and got people to send him stuff
