You should be able to cut that down a fair bit.
Ignore anyone offering paypal or asking you to send first as they are "trusted"You will probably be left with 1 or 2 genuine buyers

As far as I understand he's actually looking for people buying with Paypal isn't he?

But sure, very few (if any) members can deserve to not go through escrow for first trades ^^
