Yes. You're not allowed to trade items for tangible currency per the user agreement you agreed to when you signed up for steam

ends up in scam anyway. someone has to go first. there is no reason to fulfill the 2nd part of the transaction. 100% profit is way too juicy.

and on normal steam trades, no one has to go first, everything is exchanged at the same time, if you do it in one single trade window.

Trading guidelines aside, I believe there's actually no such thing in the SSA.

That being said, "going first before receiving Paypal money" is begging to be scammed.
And Support won't help, rightfully.

Well consider the following also;
All items associated with steam and valve are their property and cannot be traded or sold for personal profit without their expressed permission. Now the first and to a degree the second one Valve have given us blanket permission to do so long as it takes place in the market in exchange for steam wallet currency, however that permission does so far as I know not extend to trading outside the market for currency that has value outside steam so doing just that could in fact constitute a violation of Valves intellectual property

This is actually a very common industry practice I might add
