Ok guys.....we have a newer member who would like a new pair of Ti6's....and does not want to pay by credit card or PayPal...what is the safest, best way to complete this transaction ?

I need payment to buy the Ti6's for him, so I can then ship them to him 8)

perhaps bank transfer... ?

i dunno... i would think paypal is best, as he could still use credit card and that inofrmation (credit card acct info) is kept hidden, IOW sellers/receivers of money never even see it...

but in lieu of that i would say bank transfer.

or send Joerg to go collect it.

Welll safest way for YOU is any form to get the CASH in hand.
Western Union....Money ORder....something like that.
And once verified funds are in hand....thats it.

WU is probably the safest way for you. And you won't have to WAIT for it to clear...go to a Fred Meyer, Safeway or any place that takes WU's....all you need is the name/address/phone of the issuer. (so his address etc)

and cash should be in hand fairly quickly.

or you run it through someone like me. If he was to do a bank transfer to me, I get it and then pass the funds on to you via Paypal. How much are we talking about?

hundred sixty euros. uh-huh. I guess it's not *that* much.

Issue; it will take three bankdays to get the cash. If there is an issue, are the goods worth the cash anyway?

Are you sure woofersetc still has the Elites in stock?? Sometimes these sites leave crap up for years when they don't have any left.
