I've been on both sides of this matter.
Sold my 928 GTS to a very nervous man from Maine, he decided to open an account with a bank that had a branch in my town. When he arrived and inspected the car we went to the local branch and they issued a cashiers check in front of me, we then went to my bank and got the lein release. worked well!
The other side is from a purchase i made to a man scamming me on 928 parts, I sent a cashiers check to him before checking him out (my mistake) after a few emails I took action and got to my bank and cancelled the cashiers check (there is a time limit on this and I was lucky) No parts were ever shipped and most likely never existed.
Just my 2 cents, but if the RL'r has a good reputation here I would feel better about the tranaction.
