[ForSale-Swap] paypal

[Ed Griffin]

I have used PayPal a few times and never had any problems.

But the use of US Postal Service money orders is the safest thing for both 
the buyer and seller.  If either party tries to scam, it becomes mail fraud 
when a USPS  money order is used in the transaction.
