Would you sell for cash?

Cash is king, I sell all the time on Craigslist, never a problem. Buy yourself a counterfeit pen and do the cash deal.

""yah, an employee of mine just so happens to be in your area and also happens to have a huge wad of cash with him... and he has nothing better to do, but to spend his time tracking you down to buy something that''s not even for him". 

That is not what the OP said. Geezzz what a bunch of paranoid people, nobody other than the OP knows the amount of money that is involved.

" I just got an offer from a local buyer and will try to work that angle first"

Interesting, wasn't that the original offer to begin with? A person, from your hometown was going to was going to pay with cash and pickup the amp. I can't think of a better arrangement.

No, I understand that, but the original offer from the out of town buyer was basically the same, a local person would come to you and pay cash. It seems that because the new interested buyer has a "solid Agon rating" and an offer to pay with cash or Paypal, you seem more receptive. Are you expecting more security using PayPal (buyer has a recourse if unhappy) and an AudiogoN membership as being more secure? Remember you will have PayPal fees too. I guess I really don’t understand what you are afraid of. Your asking price is only $1500 and are going to take an offer. No shipping worries either. I just don’t get your position.
