I have talked to my buyer twice and several emails to work out details. He has sent the check but my bank says it may take 15 - 18 days to clear, so he decided to have me hold the check and he'll bring cash.
My bank said in any future transactions like this, set up an account or clear out an existing one, and have them wire transfer the funds into it, then transfer it out. that way there are no funds in it for anyone to play games with. This could probably also be done as an escrow account that would also protect the buyer in case the item was not as advertised.
Just thought you might like this info, in case you appear to have a legit overseas buyer.
