i eventually want to join the main SR site, but the startup i dont have at the moment. I have said what im offering to sell in the offer section. But my question is.. whats the best SECURE way of handling transactions before i join the main site? I would like to do Moneypak but u have to wait for the actual card in the mail and that takes like 2 weeks... western union is the next best option to me, i THINK i can use a fake name and just use a secret question and answer and then they dont ask for ID so i could keep my name anonymous from my customers.
Whenever im selling stuff i usually get really close to the customers and think i should just give them my real name and number and all that, but i think since SR is so known and watched i should be more careful.

You don't need to get physically sent the moneypak in order to redeem it. If you have the scratch-off number on the back of it, you can redeem it without the actual card. Buyers may be reluctant to use this method though outside of a listing on the marketplace for fear of scammers.

search the forum for moneypacks and bitcoins...i believe moneytransfer/western union -commission is expensive per transaction..
