You can pay TT, but should negotiate that you pay a part on giving the order (usually a downpayment of 30% to 50% of the total value), and the remainder when you have received the Bill of Lading, which is proof of shipment.

Replying to [negar]: If you do not know the buyer and having little trust, do it by L/C.

Replying to [negar]: DearNegar, as has been stated the only way that you can guarantee what you are paying for is what you are going to get is to do:
1) Irrevocable L/C on goods Landed. If he wishes to do business then this is very nhard to argue with. The L/C must be honored via a reputable international Bank that you and he can trust.
2) Utilise an International shipping Company that is based in Bali as your shipper. Buy the goods as FOB and payment when they are ready to load for your shipper then you can have verification and have access to the B/L. All this can be tied up by Contract.
Wouldn't you much rather deal through a china based agent.![[em2]](http://img.alibaba.com/images/eng/style/icon/emoticons_laugh.gif)
