I'd rather not risk getting a dud product. I'm going with A) Payment on delivery - no money down, no worries!

B) Payment of 50% at time of order; with balance to be paid 90 days after delivery is a good compromise. You don't have to front the full cost, but the seller still has some skin in the game.

D) Payment 60 days after delivery is the way to go. That gives you time to inspect the product and make sure it's what you ordered before you pay.

I think I'd go with C) Payment in full at time of order. That way, you can be sure the seller has your money and will be motivated to fulfill the order.
