    It's a way to avoid paying a PayPal fee. If the payment is made to pay for an item, PayPal collects a fee. If the payment is a "personal" money transfer, PayPal does it for free, so the seller saves some money.

    Ahhh oooh!
    Nice well this makes things more interesting. Well, I'll do some research then so I can use the Personal money transfer. This is a complete new way to buy for me since, so far, I have bought all my items on Amazon.com

    I'll contact the selled and ask him some futher information
    Thanx for the quick answer
    :Edit:
    I just saw the image... so easy haha. d(^_^d)

    Keep in mind that, if you use the personal tab, you will have no recourse if the deal goes south.

    I think you've got the right idea. Buying a razor from a new member might be a risk, but you can assume that a well established member is not going to trash his reputation by ripping someone off.

    When you choose to send money, the personal tab will be presented as an option you may choose to use. It works just like Utopian describes
