I've done plenty of $$ transactions for my gear but I'm wondering about your experience with safe trading practices.

Other than communication with the person to make sure they are real what procedure do you use for a trade or trade with $$  ???

Classic example: For Trade : 30D + 50 1.4 for 50D


Bodies: SONY A850 / Pentax K100D / D70 (18-55VR, 55-200)
Primes: Minolta 28 ff2.8 / Minolta 50 f1.7 / Minolta 50 f2.8 Macro
Zooms: 35-70 f4 / 100-200 f4.5 Lights: AB800 / AB400 & CSRB's
Classics:
Pentax Super Tak 50 f1.4 / Pentax SMC 50 f1.4,f1.7,f2.0

Photos...serial numbers...feedback from other transactions....phone conversation...that is a biggie...if a person isn't willing to talk to you on the phone...you have to wonder how legit they really are.

Mainly internet research. If I do not get a warm fuzzy, then I try to talk to them on the phone. In most cases, a conversation on the phone clears it right up...
