If I sell a physical good on here, and the buyer pays in BTC, is there anything I need to look out for?  I assume that as long as I wait to ship until I receive the payment, I am fine.

- Ensure that the payment has had at least one confirmation
- Use an escrow if you don't trust the buyer (or they don't trust the seller, you in this case)
- Do not leak your personal address (use a PO box or a postal office that isn't near your house)
- Always require a signature upon delivery and be sure to use track & trace
- Make a picture of the package (content and weight), so nothing funky can happen during shipping (and so that the buyer cannot claim you shipped them a brick)

Use escrow.  It will save a lot of headaches in the long run.  Good luck with your sales.

As everyone has said here use escrow.  Everytime I've used escrow here everything went off perfect.  In the event someone doesn't pay you get to keep you coin or whatever you are selling.  Its simple
