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?

The OP should clearly not be selling speakers for local pickup.  Full stop.

If I were the buyer and arrived at your home being treated like a potential criminal, I'd walk.  

The guy spoke to you on the phone and is paying cash.  And you avoid the risk of shipping the speakers.  He's doing you multiple favors.  

The comments around guns and phones on standby with the 9 and the 1 already dialed are just killing me.
