Run it through eBay/mercari/offerup and take the fee to help cover you. Good luck if you are serious

Won’t I be covered if I use PayPal as a sale? I don’t use any of those services and am not sure it’s worth it for this one sale. It’s $75, so not the end of the world if it does go badly… I’d use tracking/insurance and take my balance from PayPal ASAP.
