From time to time people report being unhappy with transactions conducted via this board, either due to problems with payment or goods not being as described.
You should take extra caution when dealing with someone you don't know. If you don't know the buyer or seller that you are dealing with, it may be prudent to exchange cash and goods in person in a safe public place and accompanied by an adult if possible. If meeting in person is impractical then it may be safer to arrange for the transaction to take place through a website such as eBay that provides some protection against fraudulent transactions (whichever website you choose, read their terms and conditions carefully for details on what protection they offer).
Bear in mind that it is very difficult to verify the authenticity of goods if they are bought outside of a regulated system (such as Ebay) and cannot be examined prior to money changing hands. Getting any redress in such circumstances may be impossible.
