Purchasing couches for sale whether listed online, in newspapers, or pamphlets, you need to use caution. There are so many scams being conducted through these outlets these days. And even on so-called 'safe' sites, the buyer should still beware.
Couches for sale by auction can be a great deal, if the person selling the couch is local to you or at least close enough you are willing to drive to see it. Otherwise, what you see may not necessarily be what you get! People can be terribly crafty when it comes to having couches for sale online. The couch for sale online may look exactly like what you are looking for and turn out to have many flaws or damage that will need repair. And the problem lies in the fact that there is little you can do once you have bought it. The seller could disappear; or if you have waited past the three day law to report it nothing can be done.
By the same token, if you have a couch for sale-beware. Many scammers are out there who are more than willing to pay your price and even beyond! Why? They want to send you a money order which you will have to cash and then send them the money that was 'overpaid'. Those money orders are counterfeit and can get you in just as much trouble as the sender.
When you are looking through local ads for a couch for sale, you will typically fair better with the people you are dealing with. A few people will be fair in their asking price, but most will be asking much more than the couch for sale is worth. But if you know how to haggle, you are in good shape. And if not, usually, if you have the cash in hand-literally-they will see it and give in. Cold hard cash is a mighty incentive to even the firmest of sellers.
And again, if you are the person with a couch for sale, even if the potential buyer is a local who wants to give you a money order-tell them in no uncertain terms NO. There is no reason for a potential buyer who is a local to be offering to pay you with a money order. And if they offer you a check, ask to see their identification; call the bank the check is written on; or even call the phone number on the check. If the buyer is legitimate, they should not have a problem with these actions. It is better to be safe, than sorry.
