·9 months agoWhy do you think you need a smart phone to enter a 6 digit code online?

OP9 months agoBecause I don't know how this works, and all I hear is that you need a QR code. If you can explain how the whole thing works that would be helpful. Thank you.

Proof of pickup is required to protect you against item not received cases.
For proof of pickup you can:

If the buyer pays cash, neither of the following disputes can be opened because as well as an

"Managing returns and item not received requests for local pickup items
Returns for local pickup listings should be treated the same as other delivery options. If the buyer returns an item because it's faulty or it isn't as described in the listing, they can return it to you even if your return policy states you don't accept returns"
