Guys

I am about to sell a pile of bits online, via forums and maybe eBay. I really don't like PayPal and wondered whether anyone had an alternatives to bank transfers and cash on delivery?

Thanks in advance

Stu

Only ever use Paypal tbh mate, not had any issues either :) Other than that it's been bank transfer, but only with people I know and trust :)

Fuck..........I have never used them.....do they still do them :D

Don't see the dramas with transfers 'drifter' but I will check all options properly (or get an adult to do it :) ) before I cock up. I will be having a proper clear out which may mean literally hundreds of bits being sold off (DVD movie collectables, car bits, golf clubs.....)

Agree with you trev if your selling it sucks ,could always try to open another bank account just to receive the funds then transfer them straight to your main account,car boot sale or have a shed fire lol.:D

They still do e-cheques, which is another option I suppose (I used to use that for all ebay transactions before arse rape....I mean, before Paypal came along)

not sure what the costs etc are these days though
