I agree with Misti
You either have to trust the seller/buyer or go through a service.
If you know the other person is trustworthy and are willing to bear the risk, then go for it. Otherwise, it's worth going through some kind of service thats an escrow service. They dont release the money until the buyer agrees that you've transfered the domain, and dont tell you to transfer the domain until the funds reach the escrow service.
Funny note: Escrow means trickster/con-artist in French... no idea how it came to denote the opposite service in English!!
