    Scenario: You are paying bookie or he's paying you
    Hypothetical, boys:

    Let's say you have an established relationship. Both sides have come up legit and honorable multiple times when paying out.

    Let's say both of you use delivery systems of cash through mail/express shipper/etc.

    What happens if the package, for whatever reason, gets intercepted?

    How do you deal with it as player? As bookie?

    It would be the responsibility of the sender. But why would anyone send a package? I can understand sometimes it hard to meet up but such transactions should be done in person only.
    If for some reason its not possible then trust the punter or bookie and carry the balance forward.

        Stackin, if the package gets intercepted by the Feds, you as a player, immediately need to go to the nearest Police station and file a missing money report.

          Is it normal to send packages? I have never been in a situation with my local where the agreement is to send cash via some package

                  Dude seriously why not give your name and the times you send at as well.
                  Sending in shipping yes , gets intercepted, split fifty fifty. send empty package trouble for you, buy insurance on the package maybe or try to work a settle figure with the guy and make it a point to send a runner when settle figure is reached. rental car $80 for couple for days, pay someone expenses to travel $100 a day and $100 hotel and meals a day, cost about $680 make a run. well worth not having to pay twice.

                    I've never had a problem in several years of business so far. so look at what I've saved by not doing what u suggested.

                      Tough case who do you believe??

                      It's an easy way to scam bookie or player

                      Like others say FedEx best

                        Chase Bank Quick Pay

                        As long as it not outside the US

                        Instant and easy. Been using it for years. I would imagine all is cool as long as you aren't getting into 5 figures.

                          True. I have had the bookie deposit in my Wells Fargo account at the counter when he couldn't drive down to pay me in cash.
                          Gave him the account number and it was done in 5 minutes. And of course the figure was well under 5 digits

                                Thats true rocket, but I've never seen any small bookies get busted by the feds most just go belly up and vanish.

                                        why would you guys create an electronic trail to your personal bank acct with a fkn bookie? and why would you even share your acct# with a guy like that?

                                              I pay the same employees every week. No info is shared. It's set up through Chase. Works great. I have never sent anything over 3 grand though.

                                              It's not like there's no tracking or paper trail involved in anything else. If the heat is onto somebody, their done.

                                                  As far as deposit. It just shows up same as any other cash deposit.

                                                            Quick Pay involves NO account data

                                                            Two people log in to Quick Pay separately and kind of "friend" each other. When I pay someone, when completely done from my end, they get a text or email. Info is limited to name, phone number, email.
