I suspect one would have to be careful doing so, but the possibility might exist to receive multiple payments in lieu of one larger lump sum (e.g., three $500 transactions in lieu of a single $1,500 transaction). Of course, you would incur additional fees in doing so and the IRS might view this is some sort of "structuring". Hard to believe they would target hobbyists, but in this day and age, nothing would surprise me.
Such a bummer, glad I sold most of my old gear last year. I have a few more items to sell and will probably require cash in person, multiple payments, or BTC.
