    NO PAYPAL. The buyer can dispute the transaction with Paypal and their judgement is sometimes goofy but most important - FINAL. I "might" use Paypal for a $100 hold the game if the buyer really wants it and there are multiple buyers.

    Best is CASH. Safest is Escrow as Vid states. Next best might be a bank wire transfer. I did this recently when I sold my Big Bang Bar. Its safe and secure as long as the transfer fee has been taken. If one hasn't then it could be fraudulent. It was $6 for me to receive a transfer. Very easy to do for the buyer at his bank and is fast.

    Read this thread and make it a favorite for future reference.

    Using Paypal to sell a pin to someone you don't know is to risky for me.
