Your thoughts on PayPal for cash during trades/transactions?

[WyldeDime]

I've always just worked the deal out over ODT or phone and then used PP. You know the saying what they don't know can't hurt anybody. As long as your just sending money as a gift and don't say in the memo "this is for a big mean gun" then you should be ok.

Until your item never shows up then you have no recourse with paypal.
