If you're new to selling on TRF I would stick to cash in a F2F transaction for anyone without feedback or Paypal with someone you can vet and who has good feedback... Wire transfer is the safest for you as long as you wait a day for the wire to clear, but it is the least likely payment method your buyer will be comfortable with...

Wire transfer is the only safe way for you as a seller.

I think Paypal is a safer means of payment, It protects the buyer and as well the seller interest. so its the best method

For seller wire is best but face to face is fairest for both sides.
