PayPal is the last thing people should use for selling bitcoins.

Very safe. Better than perfect.

For who buys it's safe to pay with paypal, and the rate is not too bad
My worry is that the seller doesn't have any protection with paypal  - the buyer protection system of paypal enables scammers to steal bitcoins so easily

Has anyone used this yet?  As soon as some people report some successful transactions I will probably buy though them.

These things make me want to stay away:
-No SSL cert
-Whois Privacy
-No telephone number
-Apparently hosted at GoDaddy

-SSL Cert is being issued. Currently the checkout goes through Mijireh Checkout, which takes you to a secure page when you checkout, or PayPal, which is also a secure page.
-If you need to reach us, send us an email. We will respond quickly.
-Leave GoDaddy out of this

since the highest transaction that can happen in a day it's just $25, I think it's safe for the buyer.
SSL it's not needed because sensitive info will go through paypal
keep in mind that SSL only encrypts communication between your computer and their server

What kind of reassurance are you looking for?

I made a purchase yesterday....and still nothing .....not so much as a answer to my email, phone call, or the message I had to leave with "online support" because no one was online.  Order # 1902.  Can someone please help! 

You definitely stayed true to your name!

kaimitchell: we sent you the coins long, long ago. The issue is with whoever is hosting your wallet. Here is the transaction receipt: https://blockchain.info/tx/5e0b2a99b3a13e69da6ce7976b5ba93ead58ccacfd508872414303c0b2f992b1

I tried to buy $10 of BTC for a friend, but the only payment method shown is local bank transfer, is that right?

[soundposition]

Hi I bought some Bitcoin on May 22, and deposited the funds into their account. Today I still have not received any bitcoin. I contacted support several times by e-mail and phone with no response. Order: #2307 - On hold (forever?)
