Would you sell for cash?


I just got an offer for my amp from a buyer on US Audio Mart and he wants to pay cash. He lives five hours away but has an employee in my town, which is a suburb of a larger metro area. He offered to have his employee pick up the amp and pay cash. The buyer has been on US Audio Mart for 8 months and has no feedback, which is not unusual. 

I guess the cash part makes me uncomfortable but maybe this is not so uncommon? So wondering if many accept cash with local pickups and has anyone had a problem.  Seems like PayPal or Venmo would be preferable. I guess I can see someone with a business drawing petty cash out for personal use. Just not sure about the whole story. Thoughts?

Sounds very fishy to me... "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".  Who travels with a lot of cash anyways, besides drug dealers and strippers?  Hard pass.
