What kind of UPS collect experience is out there?

Yeah, and sometimes the buyer is concerned that he has sent a complete stranger a wad of cash with only a promise to ship the paid for goods. It all comes down to trust and honesty. *Most* folks are honest, especially Audiogoners. I have yet to get burned by an Agoner, and I sure hope it never happens. Now FleaBay, that's a whole 'nother ballgame...

FedEx sends your customers payment to you via overnight express.

The only negative about FedEx or UPS is there is no guarantee the check is not counterfeit. Your safe with known Audiogon members, but scammers will find their way into our fold, just as they have at Ebay.

FedEx can be instructed to collect "cash only" for an additional fee. I think the last time I required cash, FedEx collected and issued me a company check. I had no problem with that, I know FedEx's check is good :^).
