Ebay seller verification question

I just won an item on ebay, and the seller will only take cashier's checks or postal money orders. Before I send off my semi-anonymous payment, I'd like to figure out of this guy is who he really says he is.

One thing that caught my attention (apart from wanting untraceable payment) was the ebay login is "shanewoodson" but he wants the money sent to "Joshua Oglesby"

The address to send it to is 336 N. Hollywood Way Burbank, CA - I looked it up on Google Maps and it looks like an appt building, but I can't really be sure that what google maps is pointing to is the read address - when I look up my own house, it points to the house next door.

I looked him up on google and zabasearch - nada.

The only other auction of his which is still in ebay's history doesn't have any feedback.

Any other suggestions?
