Best way to pay

What's the best and safest way to get paid if you sell anything on eBay? And how do these things work, I've never done it before

I dont know about the SAFEST way, but ive use payapl before and that seems to be pretty secure and reliable, never had problems. But than again theres been a number of complaints about them.

paypal for me, plus it is well integrated into ebay, so you get a smooth payment process.

Ok, yeah I already thought PayPal was good. But then, how does this go? Like for example you want to sell, and you got a deal with someone, you send it to him and then he pays, or he first has to pay and then you send it?

If you have a PayPal account, verify that you recieved the payment and then ship out the item. This is what I have always done.

Personally I use a bank deposit, keep the slip of you sending the money just incase they accuse you of not sending it
