    The best thing to do is to use Escrow for these kind of things which involve a bigger amount.
    And specially when the member is new over here.

    I think the best thing to do is use more secure payment methods such as moneybookers/payza/libertyreserve. Paypal is only buyer friendly.

    I feel sorry for you, just make sure you use escrow next time for a website transaction
