Scam? Please advise.
 
Even as I write this I'm feeling' scam. Check out his description.

This is obviously a real card, I just do not really believe he is selling it.

His auctions were only up for about a day. Here's what he messaged me with when I asked why he ended the auctions early:

"i just ended the cards, none are sold. I don't wanna use paypal because they wont let me have my money for 21 days. i figured id just sell locally, unless you can pay me with a greendot moneypak, we can do half down/pay rest when item is received or something but the way i was raised in younger days is i never let a item go without having money in hand, and im not about to let paypal hold my money that long, im new to it and just dont trust it"

Is there a safe way to buy cards from someone through the mail? Not necessarily from this guy, but for future reference, has anyone found a certain way safe?

P.S. I anyone does live near this guy you might want to give him a call :)
