I sell on craigslist quite often, big ticket items, forklifts, tractors that sort of thing. Rule # 1, no email, telephone calls only. I have them come to my home to look at the merchandise, cash only, no checks no paypal. I have never had a problem.
Yeah, but the problem is not people coming to your house, but you going to some stranger"s house while carrying a fistful of Benjamins.
