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?

I'm afraid MC has gone off the deep end again:

"I would insist on real money.......Send him your bitcoin address".

 

MC is right though. the fed is a private company run by faceless oligarchs who’s names you don’t know. they literally give a handful of nothing to the treasury and when the treasury reaches for it, it becomes ’real’ in the form of YOUR debt for that work, to the private oligarchical families who own the federal reserve. it is literally a form of indentured slavery, enacted upon you, by the federal government and those oligarchs.. I kid you not. This is literally how the money works in the USA. Originally when I heard this about US money, back in 2000, I thought that it can’t possibly be true. But over the years, I found it actually was true. Kennedy died for trying to bring back Treasury issued money, which would have messed with the indentured slavery game. Just one of the reasons they killed him. Look up Jekyll island for some proofs about the fed...

Back to the subject at hand.

When I sell locally to people who are hesitant, i tell them we can meet in the local police front parking lot. The police say that this is the area for the ’nervous’ to do their craiglist and kijiji deals. 4 in the morning, 2 in the afternoon, makes no difference.

although a 4 in the morning one would feel a bit weird.

I’ve sold quite a few items for cash only when the buyer wanted to do a in person pickup at my residence. But truth be told... I felt pretty confident of having the buyers over by reason of good feedback.ymmv

Yes

So you don’t wanna launder money? Then just forget the sale.

Another mark will come along.

Or not.
