I pretty much agree with Don on the honesty of Hams. I always prefer PayPal as a method of payment, either direction and my rating is 100% for almost 300 transactions.
That being said ... most of you know that "Rose" (N7HKW) of Elecraft Cases and Covers is my Lady. She's sewn several thousand cases and dust covers since 2008. Only five customers have taken advantage of her, and all are regulars here on the Elecraft reflector. Two are in the UK and refused delivery of completed cases, which were returned (cost free) via the British Postal system. Took months! Apparently neither was aware of the import duty and refused their orders. One was a case for a lawyer in Atlanta who claims to have paid, but can't / won't show any evidence of doing so. One is a well-known California DX'er and the other is an almost daily poster here on the reflector. He ordered a KX3 case and refuses to pay for it. She uses both as displays on her convention display table. (;-) Because of the above, she requests payment when she's ready to sew an order, and the order isn't shipped until payment has been received. The customer always gets a preview photo of the order, BTW. 73!
