Exchange Zones For Your Protection

That seems like a good idea, but rather unfortunate that it has to be done. I would guess that would-be criminals would be reluctant to rob someone inside a police station.

Even if the transaction itself is done in a safe place, who's to say you're not going to be followed home?

It's a reasonable idea if you're buying a jacket or concert tickets, but for anything of value, no thank you.

Making a transaction in a police station sounds great. However, imagine it thousands of people started doing this. Sort of a busy place and kind of irritating for the police don't you think. And then too, even there a crime is possible. I remember when I was a kid a nearby police station got robbed. Criminals pretended to be construction workers and walked all over the place and no one paid any attention to them. And as already noted, what about on the way home from there? My neighbor uses Craigs list all the time. Although he and a friend got burned real bad one time buying a truck motor via that system.
