Andrew have you used Paypal's insurance/fradulent program?

Basically all they do is make you wait 30days by that time the person has drained the money from their account, then they tell you that you were right in your claim that you were ripped off, but there is nothing they can do. This happened to me twice now.

Needless to say I only use paypal for people I know and even then I would rather not. If you guys want to stay safe, use ESCROW.com they are excellent and 98% insure that you don't get screwed over no matter if you are the buyer or the seller!
