Socratic Monologue
Too late for this time, but:

Don't use email for initial contact. Use the PM system here. It makes things a little harder for scammers who may have already been banned for previous issues, and makes it easier for you to vet the person contacting you.

Use only PP Goods and Services for payment. If someone doesn't accept PP G&S, they had better be an established name in the hobby, and also have a credible story about why they don't use it, and also should not send up any even tiny red flags about any part of the transaction. Consider whether you'd send this person an envelope full of cash on their promise to fulfill their end of the bargain. If not, then depend only on funds with buyer protection built in.
