What are the safest ways to get money from a buyer in an off-ebay transaction? That is, what methods of payment are least susceptible to fraud. What I am selling will be insured and completely tracked, so "I never got the package" is not a concern. I don't want to have to wait an excessive amount of time for payment to clear,either, as the buyers will want their merchandise quickly.

if you have a PayPal account, they can also pay thru PP. Go to Request Money and just put non auction or service or whatever.

It's about $700. I know the options, but I want to minimize the chance of fraud, e.g., counterfeit money order, giving out bank account # for wire transfer, and so on.
