Using paypal for local pickup

For items sold as local pickup only, is it a good idea to accept paypal? I heard that a buyer could say that he never received the items and paypal would side with the buyer as there is no proof of delivery.

I have done this but was paid as friends and family so that negates the possibility of buyer making that claim.
And cuts out the fees to boot.
However not really something I would make a habit of or recommend.

I've made a couple of smaller local purchases using PP. Both seller and myself were happy.

Why would you use paypal for a local pickup? The buyer should pay you with cash!
