Swapping/trading over the net, security?

Post by His Divine Shadow »

I have this guy who is interested in swapping a pair of mirrors with me, my paddle mirrors in exchange for his US style firebird mirrors, but I need my mirrors first so I can take them off and put the new ones on before I send it back to him.

I am not sure he'd be comfortable with that, I can understand this, so I was wondering, is there any way one can have some security in this? Maybe by involing some third party?

EBay, possibly?

Or send him a deposit cheque that he can cash after you don't return his mirrors.
