Well deals on Head Fi work simmilar to eBay, all payments are done through Pay Pal. DO NOT gift a payment, if you gift you have no protection. Additionally if you are farmilliar with buying n selling on eBay then use your knowledge to spot "frauds" here as well.

and with regards to the Add you mentioned, I'd buy from him. He has a little bit of Feed Back on the current system, as well as some on Head Fi's old Feed Back thingy. Additionally with over 1000 posts in 5 years, that's about 16 posts per mouth, or one every other day.
What that tells me is he's regular, and if he's regular the risk of "scamming" might not be worth losing a Head Fi account over. Of course always be careful, and since you are a new member and a new Buyer, do link him to your eBay feed back as transactions work both ways. An remember he's just a human, so we humans do forget stuff. That said ask any and all questions before you send ANY money
Okay I have just sent money to his paypal by clicking on the send money tab on paypal then putting his email in, the amount, and then clicked on paying for items/services, etc. Did I do this correctly I hope? He seems nice (which doesn't mean anything I know) and hopefully this will go smoothly!
