use credit cards, cheques or postal orders not cash
if you have to send cash use registered post

If you pay for a product costing more than £100 on your credit card (even if you only pay the deposit) you may have a claim against the credit card issuer as well as against the trader if you have a complaint. This can be useful if the trader goes out of business.
if someone uses your payment card fraudulently to shop from home without your permission, you can cancel the payment and your card company must arrange for your account to be re-credited in full.
if you discover that someone has used your card dishonestly, tell the card issuer as soon as possible
