I have been on the other side of the table... I have been able to help folks nervous with carrying cash through a few different options, or folks who just ran out of cash, and want to get a coin they know they won't find easily.
1. If the buyer has a smart phone and a PayPal account, then I do this. I send a PayPal invoice to the buyers email address. He then pays for the invoice, I take a photo of my coin with both my iPhone and the buyer's phone with the PayPal screens on the phone (to protect myself via refund scams). Then, with the funds in my PayPal account, the buyer takes home the new coin.
2. I have the Square, to accept credit cards on my iPhone. https://squareup.com/ca/reader (frankly, as we move into a digital age, more coin dealers should use this).
3. If I know the collector, they take the coin, and they pay me when they can... (for trusted buyers and friends). I once sold a coin for $10,000 to someone who just took the coin home. A week later, a certified cheque arrived in the mail.
