Dealing with finicky buyers - let alone fraudulent ones - is what drove me away from selling stuff online. The system is set up to cater to the oversensitive mindsets of entitled online shoppers, which is the same setup that gives fraudulent buyers an unassailable leg up over sellers. My marketplace of choice is Craigslist. I meet up with the buyer, they inspect the item, and pay me in cash if all looks good. There is no room for monkey business. I usually set up these meetings in front of the closest police station in order to keep everyone safe. A few times buyers have come to the lobby of my office building. I've never had an unhappy buyer after having sold dozens of items over the last decade or so.
