simultaneous ship, but make sure the other end is legitimate and trustworthy. I did two flawless trades on TRF and they were both simultaneous ship. It's fair for both parties.

I agree - ship at the same time. If you both do your research on each other, including reference checks, you should be confident about the exchange.

I've traded with 2 very trustworthy sellers with extensive TRF feedback. Both from Florida, so cross-country in my case.

I had no problems sending my watch first before they sent theirs.

My advice is to know your trading partner very well first before you decide to send your watch.

Lots of folks have done it I guess. I haven't and would say I would have to know the other side very well. Check the "watch out" section here on TRF. A couple of problems have happened in the past. Quite the stories....

I've only traded once on this forum once, but have a few times with trusted sellers. All times I've sent my watch first, before theirs. They were trust worthy and I had no problems. Feedback helps and checking out the who's who and the watchout section are a great tool.

It is all about the trust..do you trust the person you are trading with or not ?
