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.

Couldn't you ask buyer to confirm delivery when you are meeting him and making the delivery?

Imho of course. Don't sweat it OP, it's not that complicated, just use friends option in PayPal and it is a done deal.
