This article is about Cash on Delivery, for the Warlock curse, see Spell shadow auraofdarkness [Curse of Doom]

A setting for sent mail with an attached item that specifies an amount of money needed for the recipient to take the item. In order for the recipient to take the item from the mailbox, he must first pay the CoD price. This is useful for conducting trade from a distance.

To access the COD options, simply goto a mail box, and select the Send Mail tab. Don't forget when COD'ing items, to set a price before you send!

Keep in mind that it takes one (1) hour for items to arrive via mail.

C.O.D. Scams

Among the features of World of Warcraft are the ability to sell items through the ingame mail system using a Cash on Delivery (C.O.D) payment system, and the ability to wrap gifts. Unfortunately, there are those dishonest sorts out there who have figured out that these features, when used together, can be abused.

If you recieve an in-game mail with a wrapped gift and a high C.O.D charge from someone you don't know, be aware that this may be a scam. The body text of these mails may vary, but in all likelyhood, the item will be a trash gift, such as a grey drop or a low copper value item (examples include Skinning Knives or Blacksmith's Hammers.) If you suspect that you have recieved a C.O.D. Scam mail, do NOT open it, and immediately petition a Game Master. Spell frost icestorm [Blizzard] takes this sort of thing very seriously, and will take action.
