Hi guys, im about to make my first sale via internet, and im a bit "scared". Im selling 2 k700, (mine and a friends).
I would be really grateful if you could post any good/bad experiences youve had with this payment system, or with an ebay user named "torriv".
Thanks in advance!

the only problem with this kind of this kind of system is:
What would happen if officialtrades.com was to receive the buyers money, i send the package, and the buyer receives it but lies and says that they havent?? is that possible of is the some kind of control by officialtrades on behalf of the seller?? does anybody know?

Send it by a secure courier that reuires time, date, and signature. Or meet thy buyer in person to do the trade.

Hmmm, I've never heard of this officialtrades company - what do they do - is it a payment method, escrow, or something else?
I'd ask for a cheque or something, I don't trust payment methods I haven't heard of before.

the shit thing is that im the seller...and the buying wants to do the transaction via officialtrades (yep,its an escrow service).
Nop, i cant do the sale in person, i live in spain, the buyer lives in england.

Well, do you have any friends in england, they can do the transaction for you, and then send the money. Otherwise, just give up on the buyer, and re-list it.
