If that doesn't work go to the CP website and look under programs.

How do people usually do the transaction ?

Buyer must pay first ?
Seller must ship first ?

What's the general rule assuming you're dealing with someone totally unknown and from a different city.

Buyer always pays first.

Also, always get a pic with the item, and their name/username, and contact info. I usually don't call the person, but some people do prefer to hear a voice before they send the payment.

Yes it still works, but be aware that if you have any insurance claims through canada post they will send you a cheque in your business name if you used the venture one card to ship, so put your full name as your business name. Had that happen to me once and had to jump through hoops just to get that cheque cashed.
