Default Wanting to sell a bow-What is the best way
Hey Guys,

I'm brand new to the forum. Just have a question for anyone that could help me out. I have a Hoyt Vectrix that I would like to sell. I see where there are others selling their bows as well. I just wanted to know, what is the best way to ensure that the seller receives the money and the buyer receives the bow? If anyone has any prior experience or help please let me know. Thanks!

Paypal. That's the best way to insure both the buyer and seller that the funds are recieved and that the buyer gets his product.
Make sure you add a 3.3% additional cost due to paypal fees, or you can receive the money as a paypal gift and avoid the fee.

Ebay is probably still the best way to sell your bow. Most exposure and eliminates loads of lowball offers. True, ebay charges commision and they require paypal for payment, but its the fastest way to sell your item.

State that you must recieve payment first and be sure it passes ( known as clears ) at the bank , before sending the bow ! Keep that guy advise as you are waiting !

I like money orders , Postal ones are the best !

Good luck !

Glad to be a part of the Mathews family now! I bought the bow 2 nights ago and shot in a tournament last night and won! Can't beat owning a bow for less than 24 hours and winning a tournament with it!

Remember Westy's from OZ...things are different down there.

Maybe you just haven't tried the right syrup with your waffles.

I don't know if you still have your Vectrix. But I was wondering how much you were wanting for it? And if you had any other accessories that came along with it as well.
