He 'claims'...
So I suspect you didn't get it (yet) and that he's getting worried...
| While this seems very risky to me,
|
That would depend on 'how' it was send, sending cash requires a certain
amount of 'intelligent' wrapping so that it ain't 'obvious'
it's cash...
Bills alot of dark paper will do the trick
Coins glued with tape and between cardboard.
The latter remains a problem if it goes trough 'scanners' (for airplanes
and such)
| he did indeed select "Cash (no COD)" as a
payment type even though that option states that it is for local pickup only.
|
I even got a couple of 'international' ones, without any hastle, but
those where 'bills' only (and invisably wrapped by the buyer).
| Since there is no way to actually enforce local pickup, I didn't realize
this until after he mailed the money, frankly because I've never had anyone
do this before!
|
Don't consider it 'unique'
| I accept lots of cash payments from members of my LUG, but it
doesn't usually occur outside of that.
|
Once had someone send me a 'ton' of coins between cardboard, I suspected
him to be a minor emptying his 'piggy bank' , it arrived, I shipped,
no hastle
|
Can we get BrickLink to only accept "Cash" payments on an order if that buyer's
postal code is on a seller-selected list? I don't know how postal codes
work in other countries, but in the US (and Canada to, I think) the zip code
gets more specific as you go from left to right. So for example, using wildcard
characters, I could allow cash payments from anyone in Lincoln, NE with a single
entry: 685**.
|
Sounds complicated, as BL would need to split the 'national buyers' into
thousands of states and provinces all around the world, with the option the be
able to select 'multiple' regions in 'multiple' countries (I've
had international buyers picking up orders because they only live about 100 miles
away - I'm in a small country-)
Deactivate 'Cash' if you don't want the hastle, people who wanna
pickup will usually send a mail anyway after seeing your address (and usually
that is *after* they already made the purchase), so just leave in a non instant
payment method (Paypal onsite 'only' would be a problem)
