Is PayPal safe?

Don't know if you are aware and I don't know the amount but it goes by a percentage.

When completing a transaction through PayPal, the seller must pay a PayPal fee. The buyer isn't forced to pay any fee. The fee the seller pays is calculated for each transaction and is represented as a percentage of the total transaction plus 30 cents.

I'd run from this sale if it were me. they can send certified cheque maybe ? not sure how safe that is though. as noted, paypal for a sale this big is a red flag. I use paypal for lots of transactions but not for something this huge, and usually with people I have references for. cdns get email interac transfers. good luck

 

and also what fisherman said....seller pays fees which can be substantial

i have no experience in this PayPal crap and will never use it. i completed my first Kijjiji purchase last week i was nervous but it worked out the seller was very honest. 

But then a simple garage door fix did not go well, a few years back. put in parts I did not need and demanded payment!!!!
Keep safe and aware, a lot of people are not trustworthy.
