Folks - think about this.....the buyer is probably somewhat nervous (that's not the correct term, but it's early and I can't come up with the right one) about meeting a stranger in their home. Sure, there are bad people out there who are up to no good, but someone purchasing relatively expensive used audio gear is probably just not a threat, but a potential friend. My best audio buddy is someone who came to my house many years ago to buy an Onkyo AVR. Now he comes over and helps me move heavy amps and speakers from time to time. Ease back on the paranoia a little, but still be vigilant. I agree with those who said you can get a good feel for the type of person you are dealing with over the phone, assuming you're having an actual conversation and not just texting.
Local pickup for speakers - should I let the buyer in the house or use the the garage?
I got someone coming from out of town to buy some Focal tower speakers I have for sale. They are going to pay cash. I had the ad on usaudiomart (the buyer is a guest so no ratings). The guy sounds like a good guy (spoke to him on the phone). But I am new to this... should I demo the speakers (just to show they work) in my garage or is it safe to demo them in the house? Wasn’t sure the best practice for this.
What do most do when having local pickup?
