If you are the winning bidder of a successful auction, Flog It will send you the seller's email address. It is then up to you and the seller to make contact and arrange the payment and shipping. Read more about common payment methods used.

For large value transactions we recommend you take the following precautions to ensure the trade goes smoothly:

• Talk to the seller on the phone, to allow you to further assess if they are a genuine trader
• Where possible collect the goods yourself
• Use a trackable payment method such as bank transfer or cheque. Don't send cash in the mail
• Insist the seller uses a track and trace delivery method.
