I guess the good news is the buyer won't be surprised or miffed if I refuse checks.

Anyone who shows up to an estate sale/yard sale/ garage sale wanting to pay with a check is a crook or a dumba$$. If they can give you a check they can get you cash (if they have the funds). As previously stated Zelle or Venmo are other safe options. Counterfeit cash is another thing to be concerned about on a big ticket item. I sold a truck to a guy who I thought was pretty sketchy so I met him at his bank and watched him withdraw the cash.
