The cons of COD.
You have to wait for the money and the shipper has to put up the COD and
shipping charges, ask Ben Randolph about that.

I sent some stuff to California COD once, on the condition that the
person pre-paid the COD and shipping charges. 
This is probably the safest way to do business long distance, with people
you can trust.

by. :(

Here is a thought, maybe we should start a thread about people who can be
trusted.
I would like to think that I can trust fellow Scirocco Listers, but from
what Dirk says, I don't know anymore. If it is a $100 or less, I will
give someone the benefit of the doubt, and so far I am out $7 from
dealing on the internet. 
 

I wouldn't even think of not sending the stuff, or not paying for
something that I ordered. What is wrong with these people? 

Btw, when dealing face to face, one word CASH!
