Person wants to see item first before pick-up

[petrance]

Hi, I want to check what I should do for my case.

I have an item for sale (telescope) and a buyer communicated with me but he wants to see the item first (I think it is fair as it is a telescope).

I have marked the item for pick-up only since it is quite heavy.

What is the proper way to do this ? I tried to send him my address but it is against ebay's policy.

Can he click buy on ebay and then on pick-up if he is not satisfied "cancel" the purchase?

Thanks for your feedback,

Petros

You  had a gun available for an eBay local pickup transaction?

Didn't  say  anything like that at all.  Key word - equalizer.

I'm with you @johnrj1226 .

I live in N.E. PA & it is more common for people to conceal carry than not to.

When my husband & I are out & about we're armed.

That includes whenever we have done a local pick up sale.

I know it's hard for people to get it that have not grown up with guns.

It's just a normal thing here. Nobody thinks twice about it.

Guess you would  have to be where you are from to understand the sarcasm.

I've been to 3 county fairs & a goat roping contest & I missed the  sarc.
