Thanks again everybody.

P.S. Jessika, I don't want a Paypal account because I know several people who have been screwed with imposter Paypal emails. I don't want that happening to me.

P.P.S. Killearn Kitties, Thanks for the suggestion about getting the money to you. I would do it if the item meant the world to me.
You run the risk of getting "imposter" paypal emails whether you have a paypal account or not, though. My fiance does not have a paypal account, and even he gets them. I get them on email addresses that are not associated with any paypal account (email address on my own domain lol). Its another one of the joys of spam. I just ignore all emails I receive from paypal, log into my paypal account, and if there are any legitimate messages for me they will be there.
