Appreciate the offer, but I stay in Southern Cali. Is there anyway we can trade online?

You can mail me the cash, and I'll send you the bitcoin when the cash arrives. Exchange rate would be mtGox bid price (plus a reasonable fee) at the day and time that the cash arrives.

Wow! Mail you the cash? I thought bitcoin was a way to have secure transactions.

It is. Unfortunately the OP doesn't have any bitcoins. So, how can I receive an irreversible secure transaction from them before I send an irreversible secure transaction to them? I'll accept a U.S. Postal Money Order as well.

How do I know that I won't be scammed though? Also, with the fluctuating price of BTC by the time my money gets to you 1BTC could be worth more or less and that would make paying for the BTC and the fee you speak of much cumbersome. I'd be much more comfortable you send me the BTC to my address and I'll mail you the cash at the current Mt.Gox price. As soon as I receive the BTC I'll mail the amount equal to the current Mt.Gox price, but of course that raises the issue of you having to trust me. Ugh, I wish this were easier!
