I ALWAYS, ALWAYS, ALWAYS pay mail orders with a credit card.  AND, I do not 
pay the credit card charge UNLESS I have the product AND it works.  Otherwise,
I notifiy the bank that I did not receive the item or whatever and refuse to
pay the charge until I have the item, it works, and I am satisfied.  This
gives ME control over the process, rather than the mail order outfit.  Mail
order outfits are always cooperative when you owe them for products shipped.
