Sure like to see that - it would be very nice to deal with people who know what you are selling or looking for! There would also be a trust level because of the "posts" that we see from each other. Maybe the contact could be established on this Forum and the actual transaction take place off line? Don't want to create a lot more work for Steve!
I sure don't love excessive fees, but for the record Paypal currently charges the seller 2.9% plus a fixed 30 cent fee per U.S. transaction which is a lot less than 10%. There is no direct charge to the buyer to use Paypal's services but of course savvy sellers will work that into the sales price.

Well eBay certainly takes their cut and thanks to the various states in recent years has been forced to charge sales tax (which they didn't do at the beginning) but eBay and Paypal are no longer the same company and it's a bit unfair to say Paypal charges 10% when they really charge less than 3%.
I have the same concern for Steve and the impact it may have on his time! With that in mind I would appreciate if you'd let me/us know where a lot of these sites are and their contact info. I have 2 D500's and when Nikon comes out with a Z version that is comparable to the D850 in regard to AF speed and AF Tracking, I will want to sell one of my D500's and possibly my 70-200 F2.8 and replace it with the Z version. Also have some older 35 mm (Canon Ftb/Canon A-1 and three zooms) I'd like to find a buyer for - hate to throw them away!
I agree, that I think it would take more time and effort than what Steve would want to put into it, but would sure appreciate if those that know, would post some other sites that they recommend. Thanks!
You seem to have an issue with Steve... maybe a little reflection is in order as most of your posts seem.... critical... life is too short enjoy the ride
I'm fortunate to live in the Baltimore. MD metro area (not the city) and have access to a brick and mortar camera shop. Bought a used nikon d810 over a year ago and not problems. Otherwise try B and H or Adorama in NY
If you purchase an item from eBay you will be charged 10% and that's Ebay's cut. Paypal will then charge you 2.9% + 30 cents and that's Paypal's cut. So, in effect when you purchase an item from eBay your expense for the transaction will be 12.9%. BTW, eBay includes the shipping charge in the 10% fee. If you have to refund a buyer's money Paypal keeps the 2.9% fee. I've done business with eBay and Paypal for many years and believe me, they have all their bases covered.
Think it would be an unfair burden to Steve.
