Selling on Agon question

Hi, I have an ad out, and someone with no feedback, from Mexico City, has expressed interest.

I am slightly wary, are there precautions I could take to ensure I don't get burned?

I was thinking:

-Insist on bank check/money order, wait for funds to clear before shipping.

-Ship UPS and choose the option to have the buyer have to sign for the item

Does that cover me?

I am wary of accepting paypal for this transaction as disputes usually go to the buyer, and this person could claim the item was damaged and ask for money back or something like that.

Any thoughts based on your experience would be much appreciated.

I started a new job 5 years ago and since then have not been active with audio and not on Audiogon. Previously I purchased and sold on Audiogon but downsized my use of audio and have a closet full of gear to sell - AES, Conrad Johnson, Naim, etc. Looking at the Audiogon listing there appears to be much less for sale compared to 5 years ago. Any ideas why the volume seems to be down.
