sold several cars same way and shipped. this is my preferred method for selling to out of state and not in person. in person, meet at your bank for funds straight from your bank.

cash, to me, is too cumbersome once you get over the 5 to 7k range and cashiers checks can be forged anymore. this is assuming a local payment.
x2. I'd be comfortable with a little more cash but I'd take one of the pens and mark a few random bills. Until my bank ok's the funds, I'm not realizing the item. And as mentioned, that's not necessarily the case with cashiers checks.
