Cash
Bank to bank funds transfer
Cashiers check verified prior to handing over the title
Just a few methods I’ve used.
If you’re a seller. Figure it out. The definition of annoying starts with a seller who is fickle and unable to process how to do a transaction. (Right behind those that don’t leave a phone number…)

Since my sale was local I arranged to meet the buyer at her bank. The bank issued a check to me for the total price. Don’t know of a safer way. Takes all the worry out of it.
Don’t even consider self financing any part of it. I found out months later the buyer had abandoned it at an RV park.

Simple, in person transaction.
Never buy unless it has a free and clear title (no leans/bank loans IE "paid off" to keep your transaction simple and clean as possible.
For large sums of money you can have your bank wire the money to sellers bank in a one way transaction and of course the reverse if you are selling the buyer can wire the money to you bank. If you have questions about wiring direct bank to bank, ask the bank you deal with on how this is done.
Folks seem to think ebay is a safe bet for money, it isn't, lots of hucksters there that will take your money with fake accounts..

I sold my trailer on the second day. It was a good sale.
I stand corrected.. That explains why so little trash is listed in the RV and trailer section..
Very sad to see they had to do this but it weeded out a lot of the scammers from the auto listings a couple of yrs ago..
$5 for the posting isn't bad and gets you good area coverage and if you priced it right will sell fairly quickly..

For RVs it is a free listing,
Costs $5.00 in some areas now. I know this is true in WA State.
Fee was implemented about a year or so ago.
