Would you sell for cash?


I just got an offer for my amp from a buyer on US Audio Mart and he wants to pay cash. He lives five hours away but has an employee in my town, which is a suburb of a larger metro area. He offered to have his employee pick up the amp and pay cash. The buyer has been on US Audio Mart for 8 months and has no feedback, which is not unusual. 

I guess the cash part makes me uncomfortable but maybe this is not so uncommon? So wondering if many accept cash with local pickups and has anyone had a problem.  Seems like PayPal or Venmo would be preferable. I guess I can see someone with a business drawing petty cash out for personal use. Just not sure about the whole story. Thoughts?

""yah, an employee of mine just so happens to be in your area and also happens to have a huge wad of cash with him... and he has nothing better to do, but to spend his time tracking you down to buy something that''s not even for him". 

That is not what the OP said. Geezzz what a bunch of paranoid people, nobody other than the OP knows the amount of money that is involved.

Cash is King.  I just sold mattresses on Craigslist for $4k.  I love Cash.  But I agree, if you are concerned have the pick-up guy meet you at your local bank and they can check the money. 

I'm afraid MC has gone off the deep end again:

"I would insist on real money.......Send him your bitcoin address".

 

MC is right though. the fed is a private company run by faceless oligarchs who’s names you don’t know. they literally give a handful of nothing to the treasury and when the treasury reaches for it, it becomes ’real’ in the form of YOUR debt for that work, to the private oligarchical families who own the federal reserve. it is literally a form of indentured slavery, enacted upon you, by the federal government and those oligarchs.. I kid you not. This is literally how the money works in the USA. Originally when I heard this about US money, back in 2000, I thought that it can’t possibly be true. But over the years, I found it actually was true. Kennedy died for trying to bring back Treasury issued money, which would have messed with the indentured slavery game. Just one of the reasons they killed him. Look up Jekyll island for some proofs about the fed...

Back to the subject at hand.

When I sell locally to people who are hesitant, i tell them we can meet in the local police front parking lot. The police say that this is the area for the ’nervous’ to do their craiglist and kijiji deals. 4 in the morning, 2 in the afternoon, makes no difference.

although a 4 in the morning one would feel a bit weird.
