How about use gift cards instead?
They're available for eBay's, Amazon's, iTunes', Applebees'.
Gift cards could be interesting, if both parties are willing.
I would think they aren't much more secure than sending cash, because
they're negotiable by anyone.
What about verifying their validity and value - can that be done
easily, perhaps online?
heh. iTunes Gift Cards. Whole new realm of possibilities there, as
you can buy them steeply discounted on eBay. I wonder how many of
those auctions are bogus?
Personally, I might be willing to accept a gift card to a place I
frequent - like Wal Mart. No use for cards from other places tho. I
really prefer real money. That way I can throw it at whatever needs
the most attention - pharmacy, grocery store, pharmacy, pharmacy, ...
