This scam is used a lot as well with eBay, when goods are available for collection.
Whenever you get any offer like this where goods will be picked up by a representative of the buyer, tell them to send cash with the collector.
PayPal protects the buyer, not the seller, unless seller adheres to ALL the term and conditions of sale.

No worries if he pays Friends and Family, no buyer/seller involved.
