chayro, it is for your protection. Scammers will try to get you off the web site and will try to get your information out of you. When they pay through Paypal all they get is your e-mail address. Audiogon also protects the buyer. Cash deals are fine if you make the transaction on neutral ground. Always complete your transaction through Audiogon. If someone wants t take you off site warning bells should go off.
Selling with Cash on Pickup?
I would like to sell something locally with cash on pickup, but it appears to me that A'gon forces you to choose some payment method such as Paypal. I know I've done local cash sales in the past, but have the rules changed? OK, I can see that they want a way to collect their fees when an item sells, but if the seller prepays the fees it shouldn't matter.
