Selling towers - keep getting bad actors/scammers when doing local pickup only.


I have been trying to sell my tower speakers on US Audio mart. I don't have the patience to package them up and mess with freight shipping. So, I advertise them as local pickup only and I set the price pretty cheap. But, the 2 serious buyers I have gotten seemed to be bad actors/scammers. I would catch details that lead me to cancel the arrangements before they happened. 

I guess it's a bad idea to do local pickup only when selling audio equipment?

I listed LRS + on a site and I had interested parties but they were giving me flack for wanting cash. $850 is NOT a crazy amount of cash to carry. I paid cash for them and that’s how they will be sold. You’re coming to my house to get them. What are people worried about? I took them offline after 2 guys wouldn’t pay cash. I put the speakers downstairs in the basement. I don’t need them gone that badly.
