steviegetz Valued Member United States 215 Posts	Posted 02/07/2014 9:53 pm how do you go about trades with ebay members when value of the trades exceeds 3 grand, I don't want to end up being the only person sending items to find myself beat.? * Moved by Staff to a more appropriate forum. * Report this Post to the Staff

basebal21 Bedrock of the Community 13014 Posts	Posted 02/07/2014 10:01 pm So youre trading 3k worth of stuff with someone you dont know? If I understand that correctly I would say you dont. For 3k protect yourself and just have each of you list it as a sale and the other buy it. At least that way if he doesn't send it youll get a refund and have his money for your stuff.

basebal21 Bedrock of the Community 13014 Posts	Posted 02/07/2014 10:24 pm Honestly not without taking a huge risk of taking his word for it that hes not going to just keep your stuff. I mean if it was a heavy hitter coin store like a David Lawrence Id be comfortable with it, but if its just some random guy I wouldnt risk it if it was my stuff. Report this Post to the Staff

SsuperDdave Moderator United States 23522 Posts	Posted 02/08/2014 11:32 am Not even ebay allows it. Trading keeps ebay from collecting their rightful commission, and if it goes south they'll turn their backs on you. Report this Post to the Staff
Fireman638 Valued Member Canada 158 Posts	Posted 02/08/2014 6:15 pm Stay away from a deal like that. Unless he or she lives in your area and you can meet face to face at a busy location and have all coins in hand to inspect. That is the only way I would even consider doing something like that, and I wouldn't do it through ebay. Report this Post to the Staff
