ebay advise a deal or hood-winked

I haven't bought anything from Germany, I received cash a couple of times from overseas and didn't have a problem. Anytime someone asks for cash it makes my hackles rise. But, the reason is probably that money orders (international only, not US) and any type of check costs them money to change it. Cash does to, but a smaller amount.


So, I don't know? If it is small amounts, I'd risk it, larger amounts... I hate to do that myself, so, I wouldn't.
