Pretty much. You can use escrow.com alternatively, if you don't trust the buyer and amount is big enough to worth the hassle.
Contrary to the common misconception, calling the right people in PayPal can reverse a Family and Friends payment.
BTC might not be the best option for this, because those transactions are irreversible and in that case the buyer won't be covered, so he/she will be hesitant to pay with it, at least i would be for sure. If you want something where both parties are covered, then those are the escrow services. You can give BTC a shot of course, if the buyer is willing.
Escrow is good but expensive.
The price of the peace of mind.
