I agree with all on this. When I was selling off my old HO collection when getting into O scale, way back in the early 80s, I usually asked for cash only. I did except one personal check, which cleared, but only after getting a copy of the buyers state DL. They were most happy to comply, and all was good, and they did seem honest! The couple looking at my items just literally minutes before, wanted to give me a check, and got huffy over me wanting their IDs....... They DID seen shady, and after a few words (mostly from me on their demeanors), I told then to take a hike!!!! The guy selling behind me, told me they had bounced a check earlier in the year from on of his sales, but being it was a small amount, nothing legally could be done. It boils down to seller beware, most people are straight up, but spotting the turds in the group can be a challenge sometimes.....
