The recent post about the most expensive card you received got me thinking about this. I will start.

A few years ago this happened. Sold a vintage World Series program and the buyer sent about 450.00 cash from Japan.....The Japanese culture is a very honest and trusting society.

A few weeks later I sold another vintage World series program for 700 dollars and the buyer from the US sent 7-100 dollar bills in a PWE....

FWIW.Neither buyer had tracking or delivery confirmation. PWE left in mailbox. Amazing!!

Not as high as the OPs, but I once sold a card on ebay and received $80 in cash for it. The buyer had several thousand feedback, so he wasn't a newbie.

Atlanta Sports Cards has an international buyer who buys the cup and exquisite. The payments come 10k at a time in a fedex envelope.

I have had a few orders for larger amounts and payments came in cash but insured and trackable. I was mainly asking about a non traceable in an envelope with only a stamp..

Your example is still very impressive..very trusting

It's a good thing that Josh is one of the most trustworthy people I know.

I sold a leaf certified babe ruth jersey card on ebay. Way before i had paypal so it was money order or cash. A guy from brooklyn sent a really fat envelope with 380.00 dollars.

Shouldn't ever send cash. Since it's not insurable. If you insist on sending it, I would use one of the security envelopes and wrap cash in paper. I've sent a few dollars and also use a top loader. Nothing more than $5.

Never sent more than $5. It's not illegal or anything, just not smart. Anything over $5 gets PayPal or check.

This notice is required by law.

PWE wise, I've sent and received $20s before. I rarely do it, and only as a last resort.

I also only send 1 bill PWE, wrapped in paper, and tape the back.

Never had an issue, but you can never be too careful.

Why in God's name would you send cash?? Just out of curiosity how old are you?

I have said this many times...I dont have Paypal!! Thats why

I am 23...I send cash because I dont use Paypal at this time, and I dont see a need for it

I dont buy on Ebay so whats the point in having it?

I have sent cash over 20 times and never has it not arrived safe

You can use PayPal online and most stores take it as well. If you go to a card show you can pay sellers if no cash. Also buying/selling anything at all.

Why don't you use Ebay and why don't you use Paypal? Ebay is the greatest source in the world for card collectors and Paypal is the easiest way to pay. You do understand why this sounds odd don't you?

You use the internet to pay. They used to have debit cards that you could use whenever someone paid you, not sure if they still have them or not? I use their App all the time too.
