labfreak7 Posted September 24, 2016 Share Posted September 24, 2016 Seriously appreciate your response, and clear logic. Glad I've never strayed into pickup sales to begin with. I see how the cash pickup would at least avoid the Paypal scenario. Charge backs are a nasty weapon for the evil. Read this at the eBay policy link: If you offer payment upon pickup, you'll also need to offer one of the approved electronic methods, and may include this statement in your listing: "Contact me for payment methods to pay on pickup." The 3 listed other allowed payments that would satisfy the "approved electronic methods" are Paypal, Paypal Credit, and Credit Cards though seller's merchant account. Unless I'm missing something a seller would be easily open to the scam even if their intent is to list Pickup and Cash - since you'd also have to offer one of these 3. Damned if you do by the look of it. Finishing this thought process: Am I missing a way for clean and seller safe cash at pickup sales?I have done local cash pickup , and have never had a problem (knocks on wood).
