What is the safest way to sell it without getting ripped off. I know ebay and craigslist are both iffy with such a high dollar item.

Craigslist is less iffy. No fees, no PayPal, etc. As the seller, you can't get scammed unless the money you received was improperly counted at point of sale or fake or something. eBay, you can get scammed as a seller quite easily. And the protection favors the buyer.
Except you are rarely beaten and robbed of your possession on ebay. I wouldn't touch craigslist with a 10 foot stick.
Dude, meet at a Starbucks. Somewhere really public, open and with lots of people around. You're being a little over dramatic. I'm not denying that there is a chance for public confrontation, but meeting at a public place kind of counters that.
I have found that craigslist tends to draw the crazies and the like. I don't like doing business that requires me to be armed.
Armed? So I guess you're always carrying some kind of weapon whilst shopping for groceries?!? The only thing that irritates me on Craigslist is the lowball offers. Doesn't happen on eBay.
I do actually.
How many times have you actually fired a bullet (assuming you have a gun) or used your weapon when out in a public space?
I have no need to justify defending, or having the option to defend myself.

EBay is best for buying and Craigslist is best for selling.
When selling however, bring a gun, and if you don't have one bring a friend that does.
I'm asking a question, not justification. I'm genuinely curious how many times people actually use their "weapons". If you can't answer, the answer is logically never and thus my conclusion is that you're irrationally paranoid.
Besides, the right to own and operate a firearm carte blanche is not a constitutional right. It's pretty funny to see so many people who read half a sentence, stop and be finished.
So very true. http://www.ibtimes.com/craigslist-cesspool-crime-study-270401#

I have defended or deterred three separate threats over the last few years or so. One was a mugger in a parking lot, one was a guy who tried to rob a garage sale I was having, the third was a Craigslist sale.
This is way off the point of this thread.
