paylal payment?

Hello guys i am new to talkbass. That being said i am interested in purchasing some pick ups. Guy wants me to sent him money via paypal. Question is should i tell him to invoice me via paypal whats the best way to work this thing out any help would be appreciated. Thanks
 
It doesn't really make a difference. When you're paying for an item from the classifieds with paypal, you can either

1) Send a payment for goods/services to his paypal email account.

or

2) He can send a paypal invoice to your email address, to which you'll respond the same way in option 1.

As far as I can tell, there's no difference between the two methods. The seller will pay the transaction fee and you'll attach the shipping address.

Whether you pay him without him sending you an invoice first or not, the transaction will be on record the same way.
