Sending package COD

[szw]

Anybody send anything COD?

How does it work, and is there extra costs involved?

I'm searching fedex website because I usually use them, but I can't find anything about it.

[szw]

ah fuck i just found the info...

So new question...are there any ways I could get screwed over by sending something COD?

Yeah but I was under the impression that they pay fedex, not me, when the receive the product.

Fedex then pays me after.

not sure with fedex but with Canada Post they'll send you out the cheque that the receiver writes out or a money order if the receiver paid cash

Fedex usually doesnt accept money on behalf of third parties...
Why dont you use an intermediary such as Pay-Pal and get the guy to pay you for the item and then get him to pay for shipping when he picks up the item. Or get him to pay half on Pay-Pal and shipping money and then send him the stuff, and then get the other half...
Depends the level of trust involved and the amount of money.
