Message: [QUOTE="FruDaddy, post: 1214364, member: 63076"] There are still honest people out there that don't like to carry large sums of cash. If this guy is one of them, then you will be fine if you take the check. Of course, there are also scammers and forgers. These people will steal other peoples checks and pass them off as their own (sounds like you are prepared for this by checking ID). There are also those that will write a check, knowing that once they have arrived home with the merchandise, they will pay the small fee required to cancel the check and leave you with nothing. If this happens, then you may not know for a couple of weeks, and if you have already spent the money, then you are screwed. It's really your call though. Some would say "hope for the best, but prepare for the worst". [/QUOTE]
