The only sure way to be safe is to have the guy send you a money order or cashiers check.

I was selling on ebay and had a guy who screwed me because I wouldn't sell him an additional item outside ebay. He opened a dispute, escalted it 10 minutes later, then filed a SNAD claim with Paypal.
Shipped me back an empty box and got his money back.
I did tracking and everything suggested so far but he still kept the game and got his money back.
Paypal has no real protection for the seller, only the buyer.
Don't deal with the guy unless you find a safe way to cover your ass unless you can afford to lose your money.
My opinion based on experience.
Good luck! ARCADIAC!

ebay sales and outside of ebay sales are two very different policy's for both sellers and buyers.

Whatever, I posted my experience, not yours.
I'll never take a risk and trust Paypal to protect me as a seller again.
I don't use them as a seller if I can avoid it, they have too much control over the account I use for business.
I've had funds frozen because some jackoff didn't check their warehouse to see if they received a shipment from me as well.

Im honest with the guy about the selling, but yea, i dont trust paypal much to protect myself, so i guess ill have to go with a money order or casier check, thanks for all of the opinions.

Last I checked, Paypal required a 7 day wait to escalate a claim. I should know, because I had a deadbeat ebay buyer, and I was pissed that I had to wait 14 days to close the case and get my final value fees back. I had to eat listing fees.
