Thanks @the-ego-is-you
I tried to proceed with caution. The guy had plenty of transactions, a good history and 100% good feedback but PayPal always makes me a little nervous. I'm not crazy about Xapo and until VIVA issues their debit cards I'm stuck. I'm looking into other alternatives so if you've got recommendations, please let me know. ps - I'm trying to stay away from banks too.

All I can say is don't meddle with Bitsquare so far... I had a bug cost me a good amount of cash not too long ago.

What I did in the past was use the exchanges to get BTC and then an actual company to do transactions. But this is the costly way.
