Default PayPal

Guys I might be selling my 70 Camaro and a potential buyer has asked to pay via PayPal. I have never delt with this and was woundering how secure it might be?

Thanks

It is definitely "secure" but one complaint that is not uncommon is the dispute resolution is questionable if something comes up.

I would take a paypal payment as a deposit (have sent this way and received this way personally) but on a larger purchase like a car I would insist on a bank wire or cash.

THANKS you guys!!! It is amazing how many people are wanting to buy it without coming to look at it. I personally would want to look at something before I sent $.

I've been finding the same thing with mine. I wish they would come see it.

So do I....I just received 2 e-mails from different people saying they were Oceanographers and couldn't see the car in person due to that, but wanted a paypal account to send $ to and an address to have car picked up at. Very peculiar.
