How to use paypal for payments from craigslist?

I'm selling something on craigslist and about to finish the sale but I don't really know how to receive money from the buyer. Can I use paypal for that and if so, what would be the safest way of doing so?

1. First off do you have a paypal account if so then you are set if not you will need to go to www.paypal.com and set you up an account. You will probably need to upgrade to a premiere account it does not cost you anything at all in fact there is a site that is set up that is using paypal along with another company to distribute the product go by and read and check it out. They will not spam you nor will they share your email address with anyone. http://groups.yahoo.com/group/yourmonthlycash
2. you can use Paypal but even so you can be scammed, so be careful. give the buyer your email address as used when you registered with Paypal.
3. simply tell you buyer your email address on paypal. The buyer can then send the money to your paypal account. All the buyer needs is your e-mail address. Fees: If you have a regular account: paid with account: no fee paid with credit card, bank, etc.: 30 cents and 4.9 percent Premier or business account (no fee to upgrade your account). always 30 cents and 2.9 percent
