Trading...best way?

[phalaeo]

What's the best/established/acceptable way to trade items that are posted in Argo trade forums?

Arrange a meeting in-game?
Mail the items/plat?

(Cue people saying that YES! I should mail them plat!)

[MarcusCole]

if its someone I know, then I have no problem mailing plat or the item, if not I meet them somewhere.

[Soulken]

If you know or trust them mail is fine I have done mail trades with many across several servers otherwise arrrange a meeting.

[Uska]

I agree if you know them mail is cool otherwise meet up somewhere sometime

I would meet and trade face to virtual face. This prevents any possible error or unfortunate situations (item "lost in mail").

Never had a problem trading via mail even with people who I argue with on the fourms

I prefer meeting in game to trade via trade window, but I have never had any problems with mail trading with those who just don't have the same schedule I do.

I only trade by mail with guildies or people I'm very sure wouldn't pull some shenanigans. Everyone else meet at any place, invite to party, write down the trade in the party window. Take screenshot of it. Open trade window. Take screenshot. Open inventory and look for item. Hover over item to get tooltip, screenshot.

Also, as someone with 2.5yrs in the game, I do my best to help newbies not getting robbed by the very few vets who would pull that kind of low-life trickery (like offering a noob 20K gold for a planar gird they just pulled).
