Advice on sale payment...Paypal? or......

[Liz]

Need advice please.......

I'm selling a lens to someone who emailed me after reading that I was selling a 200mm lens. He suggested Paypal, but said it might not be worth it for me to go through the whole process for one sale. He offered to send me a cashier check or money order first, but I don't feel quite comfortable about that. What if he doesn't like the lens? What is the best way to make a deal work?

I used Paypal once and there is still $18 floating around there somewhere that I could never figure out how to get back (I can't recall why I overpaid something). So, if there is a SIMPLER method....please let me know. He's giving me exactly what I asked which I believe is a fair price - plus shipping/insurance.
