Quick question - risky?

[RobH]

What's to stop them coming round, picking up, then going back to ebay saying that I didn't post the item?

eBay will see that the buyer didn't pay you yet

 

[Glaucus]

cash in hand is safest option.

I'd be wary personally, but then that's because I've been stung in the past.

May well be legit, you never know

You have been stung before on cash on collection? How so?

just watch out for fake monies or if the guy changes his mind and tries to use a check.

We have sold a couple of things this way and the only risk that I think we found was that one guy tried to bait us down on the price.
