So, this is the most expensive thing I ever put up for sale. Currently debating on recording it works for the ad then factory reset it or wait and do it after they see it. My main concern is payment. Normally I take cash but I don’t think folks will be comfortable doing that with that much money.
With Paypal or Venmo, can they lie and get refunded after I hand them the device? I’ve only used the service with friends.
When I sold my Steam Deck I posted it on FaceBook Marketplace and listed it as cash only. The guy came to my house checked it out at the front door then gave me the money and left. You can also meet them in a public area with people like a mall or parking lot, I’m pretty sure police stations also have areas of the parking lot where it’s lit up and recorded where you’re allowed to meet with people to sell things.
We have a pretty big and populated mall we could meet at, which is my intention with that part of it.
As someone who has bought used stuff off FB Marketplace, please seriously consider this option.
Police station in our town has a small parking area set up for selling goods that’s lit up and under surveillance. That’s how I would sell it if available for OP.
Man, with how crazy people are these days, I would not use my house as a meet spot. I can imagine some weirdo coming back months later trying to return it because of a defect that wasn’t your fault. Definitely prefer a public space.
