Using paypal for local pickup


For items sold as local pickup only, is it a good idea to accept paypal? I heard that a buyer could say that he never received the items and paypal would side with the buyer as there is no proof of delivery.

There is no way that I would go to a sketchy, or not-so sketchy area to complete a transaction with the kind of cash needed to purchase some audio equipment ... especially off of Craig's list.  We are talking about thousands of dollars. I have sold audio equipment on a cash basis via local pick-up before, but I won't buy that way. Why? Because I have police officers in the family ... and I have heard the stories.
