How does selling an item via Craigslist work? How would they pay me and how do I send the item? Is it safe?
-
This guy contacted me and he said he wants it send to England to his son even if we're both in Germany. I had previously suggested meeting in person since we're in the same city. But he refused and that got me suspicious. It's also possible to buy it from me and send it directly to his son. Is it normal to send it for a third party? and How do I make sure if it's not a scam? Is Paypal safe mode of payment for it?

Answer:
I'd stick with your intuition; seems very suspicions.

When using Craigslist, always demand to meet in person. If the buyer does not live in the same area, you should turn down the offer. Even when you really had to sell online, make sure you have received the money before sending the item. Money escrow is out of the question, it's a very common scheme used by scammers. Use secure payment method, PayPal and similar services are okay.
