GUYS, USE PAYPAL!!!!!!
Seriously, there is no way I would do a deal with someone on the net without it. With paypal you have recourse if they cheat you!!!! If the seller gripes about the 3% or whatever it is I would suggest you pay it. It's asmall price to pay to ensure peace of mind.
I just went thru thier claims process. Its a bear and take forever. Paypal will do anything to keep from eating it, and will only let you have protection if you buy thru ebay. I ended up going thru my credit card company and they deleted the charges. Paypal will not protect you.
