Marc: eric smith wants to buy my camcorder. He lives in Maine, I live in L.A. How do we complete the deal without either one of us ripping the other off (to put it bluntly)? I'm sure he doesn't want to send me a check and then receive defective merchandise, just as I don't want to blindly ship my camcorder w/o knowing there's a non-rubber check in my hands. How is this done here on CES? Thanks. John
