Nelsons would be nice
I am selling a newish small car worth about £7,000 and I have heard that receiving payment for a car in the form of a bankers draft is not risk free. Do you have any advice on how to avoid this risk? Payment in cash is an option but I'm not confident that I could tell the difference between a well -forged bank note and the real thing. Many thanks for any thoughts you might have.

Take the payment in a bank (any bank) where you can pay in the cash and immediately have the cash credited to your account. A more expensive way is to accept the cash by Western Union or by Moneygram.
