One solution would be to sell it at cost, but how exactly? How is it possible to make the transaction safe (and as cheaper as possible) for both parties?

It's not that difficult, just get your buyer to pay you directly via Paypal (so you can then pay Amazon), add their address to your Amazon account & then have the game sent directly to your buyer.

I've done this a few times & it's the easiest way.

Sure, it's not that difficult -it's not like it did not come to mind-.
But it's not very safe for the buyer that way: I would receive the money AND potentially the item from Amazon. There is no way for the buyer to be sure the items is being paid or shipped to his of her address. It would not be the same as selling on eBay, because the stucture of eBay itself is not there at all. Also, we're not talking about 70$ but more than 400.
If I were the buyer I'd like to do it more safely. Hence the question.

Edit: and I don't even have a feedback score on the forum.

Yes, there is an element of trust involved & having no feedback will make it difficult.

I find it easier to cut out the middle man for the funds by getting the buyer to send you a gift voucher from Amazon. Apply that gift voucher funds to the order and also change the address to the buyer's address.

This will avoid fees from PayPal and maybe even loss in currency exchange. Just be wary of taxes that may apply to the country/state being to delivered to (in reference to USA).

I've done it once and worked out well.

Yeah, but that is a great way to get screwed over. At least with PayPal you have some insurance against being scammed.
