thanks for the help in advance

There are plenty of people that will give you what an iBook is worth, if something doesn't feel right, don't chance it.

Even if you get the payment and transfer it to your bank, the buyer can still reverse payment which means you will have a negative balance on your PayPal account. Since you wouldn't be elligible for PayPal's seller protection, you would be responsible for it.

I wouldn't risk it...
Stick it on ebay instead...

Do not do this. As mynameis said, the seller can at any time file an appeal over the item. He can even say that he never received it since it is going to an unconfirmed address. YOU have no protection if you do not send to the buyers confirmed address. Also, I know alot of people are using Gmail accounts these days, my self included, but I believe they are still like hotmail and yahoo accounts and thus untraceable. I do not recommend using Craigslist for any purposes other than face to face local transactions. The selling area of that site has become a joke, and is rampant with want to be scammers. Hold on to your iBook, and don't lose your rear with this guy.

thanks guys i decided not to sell it, and thank you for being nice, the guys at the pcforum i posted the same message at got all pissed of at me for not knowing everything, that has convinced me to get an ibook for sure, because ibook users are nicer lol

Great Choice. I hope you sell your iBook.
